Using the input limiter (Input Limiter)
The limiter can prevent distortion by controlling input signals that have excessively high levels.
When the limiter is ON, if the input signal level exceeds the set threshold value, the signal level will be
suppressed to prevent the sound from distorting. The attack time is how long after the signal exceeds the
threshold before the limiter starts operating. The release time is how long after the signal goes below the
threshold before the limiter stops operating. You can change these two parameters to adjust the sound
quality.
