5. Adjust Analog Input Reference Level.

[ 9dBu to +13dBu (VU), or –2 to +20dBu (PPM)] in 0.5 dB steps
The reference level VU and PPM (Peak) settings track each other with an offset
of 8dB. This compensates for the typical indications with program material of a
VU meter versus the higher indications on a PPM.
This step sets the center of the 6300's gain reduction range to the level to which
your studio operators peak their program material on the studio meters. This as-
sures that the 6300's processing presets will operate in their preferred range.
You may adjust this level with a standard reference / line-up level tone from your
studio or with program material.
Note that in this step, you are calibrating to the normal indication of the studio
meters; this is quite different from the actual peak level.
If you know the reference VU or PPM level that will be presented to the 6300, set
the reference level to this level, but please verify it with the steps shown directly
below.
