How to fix distorted sound on Bose Recording Equipment?
- D
  Donald OwenSep 8, 2025
  If the sound from your Bose Recording Equipment is distorted, check that the audio input and output signal indicators are not solid or flashing red. If they are, reduce the source output level or use the Designer software to reduce the input gain. If the input indicators are green, use the Designer software to reduce the output gain or any intermediary gain in the signal path. If the input source signal is clean and the input and output indicators are green, verify that the loudspeakers are not being overdriven or damaged.

  If the sound from your Bose Recording Equipment is too low, check that the audio input indicator is green. If it's off, increase the source output or use the Designer software to increase the input gain. If both the audio input and output indicators are green, ensure there is enough gain on the amplifier.

Also, check that the Ethernet LAN connection on the PC is enabled. If connected to a hub or switch, check that device's Link LED and verify that the ESP and PC are connected with straight-through cables to the hub or switch.
