3. CONTROL ELEMENTS AND CONNECTIONS

The various control elements of your BCD2000 are described in this chapter. All controls and connections are explained in detail, and
there are several useful tips on their use.
Set the volume of the microphone signal with the MIC LEVEL
control.
The CLIP LED illuminates as soon as the microphone signal
level is too high and could possibly cause audible distortion.
If this happens, slightly turn the MIC LEVEL control counter-
clockwise.
The microphone input section has a 2-band equalizer
(EQ HIGH for high frequencies and EQ LOW for low
frequencies).
Use the TALKOVER button to activate the software’s talk-
over function. The talk-over function reduces the master
output signal and can come in handy when your own voice
needs to be prominently heard. When you want to make an
announcement, also press button
The ON AIR button routes the microphone signal to the
master output signal.
