Adjusting Levels
Adjusting Gain
For best audio quality, set transmitter gain so the audio LED on the receiver flickers green and amber during the
performance. Decrease gain if the signal clips (LED turns red).
The amber LED may appear to be red when viewed at an angle. For best results, monitor the LED from directly in
front.
Bodypack Transmitter
The bodypack has 26 dB of audio gain adjustment.
•Increase gain (clockwise +) for microphones
• Decrease gain (counterclockwise –) for guitars or high-output instruments
