Then press the OUTPUT 2 / MENU Push-button until the Setup Menu item "LEVEL: CD 0. 0dB" appears on the Front Panel Information Display. The signal Level present at the RECORD OUT Jacks is unaffected by any changes in the Setup Level adjustment. They can be changed during operation of the MCMR67 by performing a Trim Level Procedure, refer to page 19 for additional information. The second example will illustrate reassigning the SRVR (Server) Input from SRVR/REC Input (RCA Jacks) to the DIGital 1 Optical Input. Rotate the INPUT Control until "SRVR : RCA" appears on the Front Panel Information Display. Refer to figure 7. LEVEL: CD Min || Figure 9 0. 0dB Max SETUP: SOURCE INPUT SRVR : RCA Figure 7 3.

The center frequencies of these controls are at 30Hz, 125Hz, 500Hz, 2, 000Hz and 10, 000Hz. At the center detent or flat position of the controls, the tone circuit components are removed from the signal path. [. . . ]
