Making Input Gain Settings

The Pre-Gain slider allows you to change the level of a signal before it reaches the EQ and the effects section. This is useful, as the level going into certain effects can change the way the signal is affected. A compressor, for example, can be driven harder by raising the input gain. You can also use gain to boost the level of poorly recorded signals.

Procedure

  1. On the MixConsole toolbar, click Racks, and activate Pre (Filters/Gain/Phase) to show the Pre rack above the fader section.
  2. Drag the Gain slider to the left or to the right to cut or boost the gain.
