Level Indicator
Each channel has a
level
LED that lights green when the audio level is adequate for
automatic mixing. It should remain green when no one is talking.
•
If the level indicator blinks, raise the console’s channel input gain.
•
If the level LED lights red, lower the console’s channel input gain until it stays
green at all times.
