Operational Information or how to get the best out of your mixer Gain In an audio mixer different signal levels from various items of equipment need to be amplified or attenuated to a common level so that they can be added or mixed together. These signal levels may differ considerably depending on the equipment. The signal from a microphone, for example, may be 1000 times smaller than that from a CD player.
