FRONT PANNEL DESCRIPTION 1. GAIN. It regulates the sensivity of the microphone input, line input, and an instrumental HI-Z input. Gain sensivity is adjustable in 5 decibel increments ranging from -20 to -80 dB for microphone input, +10 to -20 dB for the line input and -5 to -55 dB for HI-Z input. This controller also plays the role of a switch activating a given input.

FRONT PANNEL DESCRIPTION 10. Output attenuator knob. Adjusts the attenuation of the signal after the input stage and equalizer. The signal adjusted by the attenuator signal is fed directly to the output buffer. 11. Impedance selector switch. Switches the microphone input impedance from 1200 ohms to 300. Switching to lower impedance is indicated by the yellow LED above the switch.

The higly driven preamp will be very helpful for recording instruments of lower quality, by adding harmonics to their sound. The NV73pq is not inclined to going to overdrive owing to a very large dynamics reserve, allowing you to freely work on the sound.
SPECIFICATION Microphone input gain: -20 to -80 dB in 5 dB increments. Line input gain: +10 to -20 dB in 5 dB increments. HI-Z input gain: -5 to -55 dB in 5 dB increments. Microphone input impedance: 1200/300 ohm switchable from the front panel. Line input impedance: 10 kohm.
