8.43. FADERI -- Set Input Gain Fader
The input channels of the Vortex pass through an analog gain stage before reaching the analog to 
digital converter. The gain of this stage is adjustable via a the GAINI command. Once in the digital 
domain, there is an additional gain stage, referred to as a fader. The fader gain is adjustable by the 
FADERI command. The 
GAINI setting should be used for calilbration in order to maximize the 
resolution and quality of the signal at the analog to digital converter. The FADERI command is 
provided as a way to do volume control on the inputs without affecting the calibration. 
This command was introduced in firmware version 2.5.0. 
This command is a channel integer command. See 
Section 6.3 and Section 6.2 for more information 
on this type of command. The minimum and maximum values for this command are -100 and 20, 
respectively. 
This command is saved to non-volatile memory only as part of a preset. The state of this command 
will be restored after power-up only if a preset is saved and that preset is set to be the power-on 
preset.
