Adjusting the input sensitivity
Use the INPUT sensitivity knobs to adjust the input sensitivity. You can adjust the
input sensitivity over a range from line level (+4 dB) to mic level (-50 dB).
The peak indicators will light at a level below the point at which the sound distorts.
When you input sound, adjust the
INPUT sensitivity knobs until your levels are as
high as you can get them without causing any peak indicators to light.
■ When connecting a mic
Set the INPUT sensitivity knob to about the 3 o’clock position.
■ When connecting an electronic musical instrument (synthesizer)
Set the INPUT sensitivity knob to about the 9 o’clock position.
■ When connecting an electric guitar or electric bass
Use the GUITAR jack if you want to connect an electric guitar or electric bass directly
to the SI-24. The input sensitivity of the GUITAR jack is adjusted with the
INPUT 8
sensitivity knob . In this case, set the INPUT 8 sensitivity knob to about the 9
o’clock position.
Q: The volume level of the
instrument connected to
INPUT jacks are too low.
A: Could you be using a
connection cable that
contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable
that does not contain a
resistor.
