5.1. Gain Control and Indicators

Passen Sie die VERSTÄRKUNG1 Und VERSTÄRKUNG2 knobs to set the input level for your microphone or instrument. The 3-color LED indicators provide real-time visual feedback on your input signal level:

• Grün: Normal signal level.
• Gelb: Signal is approaching peak, limited.
• Rot: Signal is clipping, indicating potential distortion. Reduce the gain immediately.

Figure 4: Close-up of the 3-color dynamic gain indicator lights. This image shows the red, yellow, and green LEDs that indicate the input signal level, helping users prevent audio clipping.

5.2. Line In / Instrument Input Switching

Der LEITUNG/INST switch allows you to optimize the input impedance for different sources:

• Eingestellt auf LINIE for line-level devices such as keyboards, synthesizers, or external preamps.
• Eingestellt auf INST for high-impedance instruments like electric guitars or basses.

5.3. Überwachungsmodi

The Synido Solo offers three monitoring modes, selectable via the MONITOR switches, to suit various applications:

• Stereomodus: Provides independent left and right channels, presenting the original input signal (e.g., microphone or instrument). Ideal for accurate recording.
• Mischmodus: Blends the input audio with the computer's audio in real-time. Suitable for live streaming or recording where you need to hear both your input and playback simultaneously.
• USB-Modus: Monitors only the computer's audio. Useful for post-editing or when processing audio solely from your computer.
