Setting Headphone level

To set your Revelator io24's input level, press the Channel button for the Channel
you would like to use. Next, press the encoder to cycle through the available options.
A yellow underline will indicate the currently-selected option. Once you've selected
the Gain setting—it's shown below the Channel indicator number and measured in
dB (decibels)—turn the Encoder to set the desired gain level.
Power User Tip: If your input level is too loud, the clip indicator will display in red above
the input level meter. This means that your input signal is clipping, and will begin to
sound distorted. If your input signal clips, it will overload the analog-to-digital converters
and cause digital distortion. Digital distortion sounds terrible, and cannot be undone if
recorded. Because of this, it's important to keep your eye on this indicator while you're
setting your levels. Check out Section 9 for other recording tips.
By default, the Encoder knob on your Revelator io24 controls the output level of
your Main Outputs—the outputs you have your speakers connected to. From the
home screen, press the Encoder repeatedly until the speaker icon appears below the
Volume indicator. Then rotate the Encoder to set the desired Main output level.
From the home screen, press the Encoder repeatedly until the headphone icon
