RECORD GAIN kNOB

Adjust the record level using this Gain knob. The
meter reveals the level of your audio. Ideally the
meter should sit just below the red, meaning your
signal is as loud as it can be without clipping.
NOTE: If you turn the record Gain knob down
and the red clip led is still illuminated, the
signal is clipping the input of the Sixty-One.
If possible, turn down the level at your audio
source before it reaches the Sixty-One.
