Adjusting the input signal
Setting the input signal of a digital unit is particularly important, much more than with an analog unit, as
any saturation of the A/D converters caused by excessively high input signals cause a typical particu-
larly distinct noise (high level square wave).
Proceed as follows:
+ Keep the
DX 26 PLUS
outputs in
MUTE
status (LEDs lit).
+ Feed a signal in on the
DX 26
’s
input and watch the
INPUT LEVEL A-B
LED ladders.
To obtain a good signal/noise ratio, i.e. an up-front distortion-free signal, keep the signal quite high, but
make certain the red
CLIP
LED doesn’t light up continually.
+ First of all, find the output level setting for your mixer (or other unit) connected to the input of the
DX 26
PLUS
+ Then adjust the
DX 26 PLUS
input gain if necessary:
Press the
MODE
key until the
EDIT
menu LED lights up.
Use the
PREV
and
NEXT
keys to go to the
Input Gain
page:
´
I n p u t G a i n
Press
ENTER
. The display shows the
INA Gain
or
INA&B Gain
page (according to the configuration
and other utilities loaded in the memory):
I N A
G A I N
0 . 0 d B
I N A & B G A I N
0 . 0 d B
Use the
DIAL
to change the gain value and watch the level of the signal on the LED ladders until the
ideal values are reached.
I N A
G A I N
- 2 . 5 d B
I N A & B G A I N
+ 6 . 0 d B
Then use the
PREV
and
NEXT
keys to access the
INB Gain
page (if there is one – this depends on the
configuration and the other utilities loaded in the memory).
Repeat the settings as explained above.
