 a better option. Any comments on this from those who are using this equipm=

I don't use it but I helped someone get started with it. I suggest turning =
the trims all the way up and the master down. For a rough level talk to you=
rself in a normal voice with a mic at arm's length, and set the master so y=
ou have 6-10 dB of headroom.
