* The vertical bar is the peak indicator

* If the signal is near the far right AND the peak indicator is at or below the red dotted line, you have a good strong signal.

* If the peak indicators are hitting the far right, you are clipping the input. ~~Return~~ to the PAN/AUX ~~setting~~ and ~~turn down~~ the Level

* If the peak indicators are hitting the far right, you are clipping the input. Lower the output at the source.

**When you have set the input levels so the peaks never hit the far right, you are finished with this setup. You don't have to do this again until you connect a new input source. You can control the volume at the source, or the {{ToneMatch Mixer}} Master Volume control.

* Turn the Rotary selector to PAN/AUX and control the signal level sent through to the Master Output <br>[[File:T4S Aux Level 75 percent.png|640px]] <br> This gives you the same functionality as using channel volume controls for the other channels.

When you have set the input levels so the peaks never hit the far right, you are finished with this setup. You don't have to do this again until you connect a new input source. You can control the volume at the source, or the {{ToneMatch Mixer}} Master Volume control.
