To record from the line-in connectors
Once you have created a new session, the Line-In Record
screen allows you to begin the recording process:
If your Line-in Source is the analogue input connector, you
will need to set the recording Gain to an appropriate
level. To achieve the best quality recording try to play the
loudest passage from the music you are going to record
and set the gain such that the loudest peaks are in the
yellow region of the signal level meters. The Peak Level
dB indicator shows the maximum level reached so far.
To adjust the recording gain setting
• Use the 9 or 8 keys to highlight the Gain (dB)
option and press the 3Edit action key.
• Use the 9 or 8 keys to highlight the appropriate
gain option.
• Use the 6 or 7 keys to adjust the gain setting to
ensure that the loudest peaks in volume are in
the yellow region of the signal level meters.
Press the 3Clear action key at any time to reset
the peak level marker.
• Press the 5Select action key to confirm your
settings and return to the Line-In Record screen.
Note: If you have selected either the coaxial or optical
digital input as your line-in source the gain setting may not
be altered. The signal indicator in this case will show
whether a valid digital connection has been made. If the
signal indicator shows protected the current digital source
has been copy protected and may not be recorded onto
your Digital Music Server using the digital inputs.
