Adjusts the gain of each input signal. Set this control appropriately
so that the [PEAK] indicator lights at the maximum input level.
By adjusting this control appropriately, the LM16 can accept a
signal within -60dBu and -12dBu for mic input, while it can accept a
1
signal within -40dBu and +8dBu for line input (see page 28 for
details).
