\ Audio input/output level controls
These controls are used to adjust the recording and playback levels of the PCM audio
signals (CH1/CH2/CH3/CH4/CH5/CH6/CH7/CH8) and the CUE track signal.
The upper controls are for adjusting the recording levels.
The lower controls are for adjusting the playback levels.
Each control is a “pull for variable” control, meaning that the level can be adjusted only
when the control has been pulled up. The signal levels are set to the unity value (preset
value) when the controls have been pushed down.
Furthermore, when the channels have been switched between CH1-4 and CH5-8 using
the AUDIO CH SELECT button Z, the previous information is retained until the controls
are next operated.
