applied to an INPUT, make
adjustments to the patch

(0dB) from turning on.

Adjust the recording level.
NOTE
Red lights on PEAK indicators and Level meters
• A PEAK indicator turns red when the input
signal exceeds the maximum detectable level
of 0 dB, resulting in input clipping. The red light
on a Level meter means that the signal being
recorded (signal after passing through the insert
effect) is clipping. If clipping happens, the
recorded sound will be distorted. You should
reduce the recording level.
