Recording
While actually sounding the recording source (i.e., talking or singing into the 
microphone, or playing your guitar), operate the appropriate knob to adjust the 
recording level.
If the USB recording level indicator lights all the way to the red segment, the input 
level is too high. Use the appropriate knob to adjust the level so that the USB 
recording level indicator goes as high as possible but without causing the red 
segment to light.
■ About the level indicators
The SC-D70 has two level indicators: the USB recording level indicator and the 
OUTPUT level indicator.

USB recording level indicator
This shows the output level of the audio signal that is output via USB to the 
computer. This is the level at which the selected recording source is mixed. When 
recording on your computer, watch this indicator as you adjust the recording level.
OUTPUT level indicator
This shows the output level of the audio signal that is output from the audio output 
2 jacks and the digital output connectors. Regardless of the recording source 
selection, this will be the combined level of all recording sources. When recording on 
an external audio device such as a stereo set or MD, watch this indicator as you 
adjust the recording level.
If you use the output from 
the headphones or audio 
output jacks to adjust the 
recording level, it may be 
different than the level 
actually recorded on your 
PC, depending on the 
position of the audio input 
monitor level knob.
