Input
The INPUT knob trims the level coming into the PEQ-230. It should be
set so that the average level is around –15dB, but not so high so that
the
INPUT METER hits the red CLIP light.
Output
The OUTPUT knob boosts or cuts the overall level coming out of the
PEQ-230. It should be set so that the average level is around –15dB,
but not so high so that the
OUTPUT METER hits the red CLIP light. The
output control is useful for compensating for overall gain changes
due to extreme EQ settings.
