Settings Menu 1; Adjusting The Output Level - Esoteric F-03A Mode D'emploi

Settings Menu 1

In Settings Menu 1, you can make settings for the selected input
source.
You can set the output level adjustment, phase inversion and input
source name. You can set these independently for each of the inputs.

Adjusting the output level

Level>***
You can adjust the output level for the selected input.
You can set this to values between −18.0 dB and +18.0 dB in 0.5dB
increments.
The default value is 0.0 dB.
Note about settings and sound quality
The Level (output level adjustment) setting items affect the vol-
ume. This unit's microcomputer analyzes these settings and the
volume level value comprehensively to conduct unified control of
volume amplification.
For this reason, unlike ordinary amplifiers that pass audio signals
through multiple circuits, these settings will not degrade the
audio quality.
Phase inversion
PHASE>***
This switches the phase of the selected input connector.
This can be used to reverse the phase of the audio signal output.
If the XLR connector of the audio output device is pin 3 HOT, select
INV.
By default, this is set to NOR.
NOR
No phase inversion
When using XLR input connectors, pin 2 is HOT.
INV
Phase inversion enabled
When using XLR input connectors, pin 3 is HOT.
