The quickest way to adjust input gain, or the left/right pan position, is to turn the fader strip rotary control.

For a microphone source, two separate input gains are available: mic gain in the analog domain (before the A-D converter) and channel gain in the digital domain (after the converter). For other source types, only the channel gain is available.

For a mono source, you can adjust the left/right pan position. This changes to input balance on a stereo source.

The gain ranges and other input parameters are described later. See Input & Pan Parameters.

Operation

The steps below describe how to adjust input gain and pan from the fader strip rotary control.

  1. Turn the fader strip rotary control to adjust the first parameter.
    You will see both the parameter name (e.g. Mic gain) and value (e.g. 45dB) in the display.
  2. Press down on the rotary control to step to the next parameter (e.g. channel Gain).
  3. Press down again to reach the next parameter (e.g. left/right Pan).
  4. If you keep tapping down, then the sequence repeats.
  5. To cancel out of the sequence, press the Access key once.

On a Ravenna source, the parameter sequence is extended to include the stream selection for the receiver.

Tip: To interrogate parameters without making a change, touch the rotary control for 1 second - the display shows the parameter and its current value.
