7.2. Changing Input Gain settings.
Open the configurations options display for the device that you want to change input gain
levels for.
For most standard line level devices (excluding PHONO input), Input Gain can be set to:
-6dB
0dB (default)
+6dB
+12dB
Increase the gain setting to boost the level as shown in the level meters on the Now Playing
screen, reduce the gain to lower the level.
Any change to the input gain should be verified by playing music and noting the values
showing on the level meters on the Now Playing screen.
It is desirable to choose a loud section of music during these tests to ensure clipping will not
occur during any of your recording.
Tip: Typical settings for the Input Gain levels:
0db for CD/DVD input
+6dB for tape
-6dB for high output DAC devices
For a turntable input, Plato provides a wide range of gain settings to support a large range of
cartridge types. Follow the same procedure to setup the phono input gain.
See option list below.
7.3. Recording a track or album
Once you are satisfied with the input level you can record your favourite music.
