Notes
The default is 20 dB for DSR-50; 18 dB for DSR-50P.
The standard output level of the AUDIO OUTPUT jacks is 10 dBu. This is equivalent to
20 dB for DSR-50, or 18 dB for DSR-50P from full bit (maximum audio level). This level
is fixed and does not change even if you change the REF LEVEL setting.
Changing this level does not change the audio gain of this unit. Turn the audio recording
level control knobs to adjust the recording level accordingly.
