the control can be recessed to prevent accidental adjustment.

until it clicks and releases.
To turn off the monitor, rotate the control counter-clockwise until it clicks OFF.

Input selection
To record analog audio either from a line source or from microphone, set the INPUT switch
to ANA (analog) position. Cormect the input source to the individual analog input
connectors (CHI IN, CH2 IN, and CHS IN), set the corresponding LINE/MIC switch to the
correct setting. If you are using a microphone, see "Microphone input settings" on page 33 for
other settings you may need to make.
