Fig. 13. Correct Signal Balancing. This drawing shows the result of correctly following the system
balancing procedure detailed above. The input signal is in the range of +4dB to +26 dB. With the
Matrix attenuation controls set to -12dB the input signal is attenuated to -8dB. The resulting signal-
to-noise ratio is improved to more than 80dB. +20 dB or more input signal would give better than
100 dB signal-to-noise ration.
