output of each device in the chain is checked in turn versus the nominal level. This is an analog concept
and measurement. The setting permits the encoder to adjust its gain structure to ensure that the
resulting digital audio level for a sine-wave tone at Reference Level will be 20 dBFS.
In the digital domain the Facility Reference Level should be equivalent to -20 dBFS (decibels below Full
Scale) per SMPTE RP155.
