Can anyone provide a 5th Grade explanation of how/when to use the Chanel Input GAIN control versus the Channel Level Control on my mixer? On my mixer, the Gain control is next to the XLR jack, and the Level control is at the bottom and grouped with EQ, Pan and and Post controls.
Almost too embarrassed to ask, as I KNOW this is a real novice question, but I have yet to find a concise, clear explanation as to how much of each to use relative to the other, and a guy has to start somewhere. I have my own notions after messing around, but I could do with a proper 'splanation. Otherwise, perhaps someone can point me to a good article, or propose a good string of search words, and I will do my homework from there. Thanks you. James
