Adjust PAD Settings to Match your Input Level

As in all audio equipment, the setting of the input level is crucial to achieving the best sound quality. Setting
minimal PAD levels (-3, -6, or -10 dB) may produce a distorted sound if you are using a high output microphone
or instrument. Conversely, setting a more extreme PAD level (-40, -37, or -34 dB) may require you to raise
your system gain unnecessarily, resulting in a noisier output. Watch the input meter on either the transmitter
or the receiver (see illustrations) and set your level so there are at least three indicators illuminated for normal
program level, with an occasional move to the fourth indicator. The fifth and biggest indicator denotes clipping
– watch out! If you see clipping, choose a lower pad setting (for example, from -10 to -14 dB).
