Each input channel (Gain 1 and Gain 2) has a dedicated rotary knob on the front panel to adjust the input level. Turn the knob clockwise to increase gain and counter-clockwise to decrease it. Adjust the gain so that the 'Signal' LED illuminates consistently during input, and the 'Peak' LED only flashes occasionally during the loudest parts of your audio, avoiding constant illumination which indicates clipping.
