=== Gain Staging  ===


Q: What is the proper method for setting the gain on a Model II power stand when connected to an analog source?
==== Properly setting the analog input trim (volume, or gain) control  ====


A: While playing your instrument or audio source as loudly as you would in performance, adjust the trim level on the power stand until you see the LED go from yellow to red. Then back the trim level off until the signal LED is predominantly yellow with brief peaks into red.  
With the audio on the input signal at or near its most intense, adjust the trim level on the Model II analog input until the LED begins to turn from yellow to red. Then reduce the trim level until the signal LED is predominantly yellow with only brief changes to red.  


=== Stereo Source to Power Stand Analog Input?  ===
==== Can a stereo signal be used with the analog input====
