Level
Thiscontrolsthelev eloftheexternalaudiosignal.The
defaultis127.
TheanalogaudiosignalsfromAUDIOINPUTS1–4are
convertedintodigitalformbyanA/Dconverter.This
parametersetsthelevelofthesignalimmediatelyafter
thisconversion.
Ifthesoundisdistortedeventhoughthislevelsetting

isverylow,see“Tipsforeliminatingdistortionwhen
usingtheanaloginputs”onpage 108.
Avoiding extraneous noise
IfaudiocablesareconnectedtoAUDIOINPUTS1–
4,anynoisecarriedbythecableswillenterintothe
OASYSmixerstructure.Similarly,theS/P DIFinput
maycarrynoisefromexternaldevices.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busassignmentstoOff,includingBus
Select(IFX/Indiv.OutAssign),RECBus,andFX
ControlBus
IfnoaudiocablesareconnectedtoAUDIOINPUTS
1–4,theinputsignalsareforcedtozero,preventing
anyadditionalnoise.
Audio Track Mixer
Youcanspecifytheaudiosourcetorecordfrom,and
changethePlay/Mutestatus,SOLOstatus,pan,and
volumeforplayback.
