At the output you can set the maximum analogue level based on 0dBFS. For our example one must set the
output to +15dBu. I.e. at 0 position of the channel fader and with a channel gain of 0 dB the operating level at
the output will be +6dBu again (incl. 9 dB headroom).
As noted early on above, the microphone inputs can also be used as analogue line inputs.
For microphones with small output levels the important thing is to achieve an optimized noise
behavior. For line level analog inputs, maximum input level is more critical. Three settings provide for
these cases:
In setting MIC LOW (see Setup software) the equivalent noise level (termination 200Ohm) is
-126dBu (RMS) with a maximum inputs level of -26dBu.
In setting MIC HIGH (see Setup software) the equivalent noise level (termination 200Ohm) is
-110dBu (RMS) with a maximum input level of +10dBu.
In setting LINE, the clipping point of the input is +26dBu and the overall dynamic range is
110dB. The setting HIGH also provides a compromise for microphones with higher output
levels - this will work well with mics with line level outputs.
By combination of a compressor within the channel strip and limiters on the output busses, you can control
signal dynamics very well. While both sections operate wideband there is no negative effect on the sound as
long as you operate within a moderate range of compression and limiter range values.
