# On the {{ToneMatch Mixer}} turn the Master Volume all the way off. You don't need an audible signal to set the input levels.
# Connect the source to the {{ToneMatch Mixer}} Aux inputs.
# Turn the source up to the maximum you will use during performance (as high as you can without audible distortion)
