Allows to adjust the amplification of the signal fed in through Inputs A and B.
Editing values are in the range
+6dB ~ -30dB, with 0.5dB steps.

Note:
Setting the input signal of a digital unit is particularly important, much more than on an analog unit, as
any saturation of the A/D converter due to an excessively high input signal causes a typical particularly distinct
noise. To achieve a good signal/noise ratio, i.e. an up-front distortion free signal, feed a signal in on the MAXI-
DRIVE3.4's input and watch the
LED ladders. Keep the signal quite h

The noise gate control has 4 main parameters: attack, release, threshold and range.
You can use the "ENTER" key to access to the noise gate sub-menu, then select the editing parameter that
you want to perform via the "PREV" and "NEXT" keys, use the DIAL to set the value for these parameters.
The attack can be varied from 0.5-100mS, with the 0.5mS per step.
The release is in the range 0.01s ~ 4.00s, with the 0.1s per step.
The threshold is in the range -80.0 ~ 8, with the 0.5 per step.
The range is in the -80 ~ 0, with the 0.5 per step.

5.3.3 Input EQ
Input equalizer with 5 parametric filters.
Allows to alter the overall tone of the signal connected to the respective input.
Also called
the equalization of the input signal effects all the outputs connected to the
Master EQ,
input and
the input SUM.
This component's characteristic quality and programmability (identical to the output Equalizer) enable it to
be Used so effectively and flexibly as to make the use of graphic equalizers often unnecessary.

Allows to cut or reduce the background noise generated by the unit connected to the processor's inputs (the
mixer, for example). The filter is active when the input signal is below a certain threshold and reduce its level
cutting the undesired background noises.
