4.3.7.1 Adjusting Levels
There are three ways to adjust the gain of an input or output:
▸ Make large changes (1 dB increments) by tapping and sliding the fader.
▸ Make small adjustments (0.1 dB increments) by tapping and dragging above, below, or to the left of
each fader control.
▸ Adjust the gain to an exact value (0.01 dB increments) by tapping the gain value directly and using the
on-screen keyboard to enter the new value as follows:
1. Tap the input gain value (highlighted in blue at the top left of the screen).
2. Enter –3.75 dB of gain, and tap OK.

The same principles apply to adjusting other levels (delays, limiters, and so on) throughout the
Lake Controller software.
To view/update other types of levels, simply tap the required type of level from the button bar (Delay, Limiter
Max RMS, and so on). The faders and levels change to display the value of the selected level type.
4.3.7.2 Metering
In the Levels interface, all input and output levels are accompanied by metering. Input meters show both
average level and peak level, with a user-denable peak hold. Output meters show the aforementioned level
metering on the left side of the meter face, and additionally show limiter activity on the right side of the
meter face.
Regardless of the level type currently being
adjusted, gain and limiter metering is always
displayed.
If an audio channel is clipped, the meter face turns red. Additionally, if an audio channel is within 2 dB of
clipping, the meter face turns orange.
