Output levels are controlled by the Digital Gain (dB) fader. Always adjust the input gain
before the output gain. In most cases, setting the analog gain correctly results in an
appropriate output level. Sources that have a quiet signal, such as a microphone with low
sensitivity, may need some Digital Gain (dB) applied. If the output is clipping, use the
Digital Gain (dB) fader to lower the signal.
Note: If summing is enabled on input channels, use the Digital Gain (dB) and Analog Gain (dB) controls
in the Input section to adjust the mix.
Analog Outputs
Match the output level from the Network Interface to the input sensitivity on the analog
device:
Line level (0 dB)
Aux level (-20 dB)
Microphone level (-46 dB)
LED Signal and Clipping Indicators
Each analog output channel has a corresponding LED:
Green: Audio signal present
Red: Audio signal is clipping and should be attenuated.
Metering Options (Pre-gain and Post-gain)
Each Dante channel includes a meter to measure signal levels (dBFS), located in the web
application under the input and output sections.
Pre-gain metering measures the signal level without digital gain applied. It does reflect
analog gain adjustments on the two input channels. Post-gain metering measures the
signal with both analog and digital gain applied.
To change the metering setting, open the Settings menu, select the General tab, and
adjust the Metering setting.
Important: If the incoming signal is adjustable (wireless microphone systems, for example),
make sure it is at the nominal level before adjusting the analog gain on the Audio Network
Interface.
Parametric Equalizer
Maximize audio quality by adjusting the frequency response with the parametric equalizer.
Common equalizer applications:
Improve speech intelligibility
Reduce noise from HVAC systems or video projectors
Reduce room irregularities
Adjust frequency response for reinforcement systems
