and will never increase gain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
This preset is designed to be used for recording of live shows and has
|
|
|
|
|
quite large headroom for loud parts. It heads for a nominal target peak
|
|
|
|
|
level of -9dB and will slowly increase or decrease gain to reach it.

slowly increase or decrease gain to reach it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\item[Medium:]
