Avoiding extraneous noise
Ifcablesareconnectedtoanyoftheaudioinputs
(analog,S/P DIF,orUSB),anynoisecarriedbythe
cableswillenterintotheKRONOSmixerstructure.
Thismayincludehiss,hum,andotheraudionoise.
Toavoidnoisefromunusedaudioinputs,either:
•Settheinput’sLevelto0
or
•Setallofthebu

f,includingBus
Select(IFX/Indiv.OutAssign),RECBus,andFX

Ifnoaudiocablesareconnectedtotheanalogaudio
inputs,theinputsignalsareforcedtozero,
preventinganyadditionalnoise.
