Setting Levels - Samson G-TRACK PRO Manual Del Propietário

Setting Levels

You can adjust the G-Track Pro's internal analog input gain stage by using the
G-Track Pro's INSTRUMENT and MIC level control knobs. The purpose of the
level, (or gain) controls are to optimize the amount of good signal relative to any
associated noise. The G-Track Pro preamp includes a clip indicator to show when
the input signal is overdriving or clipping the input.
To set a good level on the mic:
1. Set the G-Track Pro up in front of the desired sound source and slowly raise
the MIC volume control until you see the CLIP indicator light red.
2. Then, turn the MIC volume control down until the indicator no longer lights
red.
3. Repeat the same process for the instrument. Play your instrument or line
level device at a performance level, and slowly turn up the INSTRUMENT
volume control until the CLIP indicator lights red.
4. Then, turn the INSTRUMENT volume control down until the CLIP indicator
no longer lights red.
5. Once you set the INSTRUMENT and MIC input level control you shouldn't
need to change them during recording.
6. Use the level controls in the computer software to set the balance between
the instrument mic and stereo mix from the software.
