How to Match the Input Levels
If guitar, mic, or auxiliary input levels are set too low, then the data actually
recorded may need to amplified, which may result in noise. At the same
time, recording with the input levels set too high may cause the sound to be
distorted.
Use the following measures to adjust the inputs to the most appropriate
levels.
* The adjustment is made while playing loudly with a connected instrument or the
like, so take care to ensure that the output volume does not become too loud.
How to Adjust the MIC/A and GUITAR/B Input Levels
Carry out this procedure while outputting the highest sound levels to be
used by the connected instrument.
1
Rotate the INPUT A and B Sensitivity Volume knobs clockwise until the
INPUT A and B Peak Indicators light up.
2
Gradually rotate the INPUT A and B Sensitivity Volume knobs
counterclockwise to the position at which the INPUT A and B Peak
Indicators are no longer lit.
Selecting the Auxiliary and Digital Inputs and Setting
the Levels
When Connected to the Digital Input
In the Mixer window of the U-8 Controller, select DIGITAL for the INPUT
setting in INPUT AUX.
When Connected to the Auxiliary Input (AUX IN)
In the Mixer window of the U-8 Controller, make the INPUT setting in
INPUT AUX according to the device you have connected.
• Generally, when connecting to a component CD, MD, DAT, or similar
digital device, select AUX+4.
• Generally, when connecting to a portable CD or MD player, or other
such device, select AUX-10.
When setting to AUX-10, used the following procedure to match the levels.
1
Open U-8 Controller.
2
Select AUX -10 for INPUT in INPUT AUX in the Mixer screen.
3
Bring up the INPUT AUX fader and the Master Volume fader to 100.
56
If the indicator stays lit
even when you turn the
INPUT A/B adjustment
knob completely
counterclockwise, lower
the output volume of the
connected device.
Raising the input faders too
high when inputting digital
signals may cause the
signal to become distorted.
To confirm which setting,
AUX+4 or AUX-10, is used
for the output of the device
you actually are using,
check the related
information in the owner's
manual for the device.
