LEVEL controls and meters
These control the output level of each track of the master tape; turn
to the right to increase the output level and to the left to decrease
it. The level is shown on the respective meters. A 0 level reading in
the meter corresponds to an output level of 24.5mV. Depress the
STAND
BY button to play back the master tape only, and adjust
the output level so that the pointers of the level meters deflect as
closely as possible to 0 level at the highest signal level passage of
the program. The pointers may go over 0 an instant at a sudden
high level burst, but this is not harmful. These knobs are calibrated
in 1 dB steps.
