From the pop-up menu, select the interface in-
put you want to record. For example, select
Mic/Line 1 if your audio source is plugged into
either the Mic Input 1 or Line/Inst Input 1 jack
on the back of the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack. Se-
lect Mic/Line 1–2 on any stereo audio track
when your audio source is stereo.
7
Play the instrument or sound source at the
volume you will record.

Use the Gain controls on the Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack to maximize the signal going into
Pro Tools while avoiding clipping.

If you need to lessen the amount of signal de-
lay (latency) that you are hearing, set Pro Tools
to Low Latency Monitoring mode. See “Con-
trolling Delay (Latency) During Monitoring” on
page 18 for specific steps.

Clipping occurs when you feed a signal to
an audio device that is louder than the cir-
cuitry can accept. To avoid clipping, adjust
the Gain control to a level where the Peak
LEDs (located on the top panel of Digi 002,
and on the front panel of Digi 002 Rack)
flicker occasionally.
For line-level devices, the Gain knob should
be turned down all the way.
