Chapter 3 Adjustments and Settings
When you set the AUDIO SELECT switch to
AUTO, the input levels of analog audio signals
recorded on each channel are adjusted
automatically. You can also make manual
adjustments.
Note
Even if you set the AUDIO SELECT switch to AUTO,
the input levels of digital audio signals are not adjusted
automatically.
Target audio level for manual audio level
adjustment
Make adjustment using –20 dB as the target level.
If the audio level meter shows a maximum level
of 0 dB, then it indicates that the input audio level
is excessive.
1 To adjust the signal input to the AUDIO
IN CH1 or CH2 connector, set the
AUDIO IN CH1 or CH2 switch to
REAR.
To adjust both input signals, set both
switches to REAR.
2 Set the AUDIO SELECT switch(es)
corresponding to the channel(s) selected
in step 1 to MANUAL.
3 With the LEVEL control(s) for the

that the audio level meter shows up to
–20 dB for a normal input volume.
