Gain

• Options: 6, 12, 18, or 24 dB.

• Default: 18 dB.

Gain can be added to the microphone signal to increase the recorded signal’s amplitude.

Test recordings should be made to make sure desired signals are being recorded with enough gain, but not so much as to cause clipping distortion. If a test recording shows clipping distortion, lower the gain setting. If a test recording shows a faint signal, raise the gain setting.
