The recording level setting can be checked on the
display. To record with optimum sound quality,

possible, without exceeding the 0 (dB) indication
on the meter. The setting range is 0 – 127. When
the recording level is too high, the sound will be
distorted.

The recording level set here also influences the
signal level after effect processing. When
switching between effect on and off or when
changing effect settings, the recording level
may have to be readjusted.
When effect processing is off, a recording level
setting of 100 will result in a unity gain (no
amplification) being sent to the track. If the level
meter indication shows that signal clipping
occurs, readjust the input source sensitivity
setting.

To terminate the recording level
setting, press the jog dial.
The recording level is set. The fader icon
