1.Input Gain: Adjusts the input's gain level. Set this knob so the corresponding Signal/Clip LED (located below the knob) displays a "healthy" level during performance—but not so high that the LED "clips" or peaks, causing distortion in the audio.
2.Signal/Clip LED: The LED will light up green when an input signal is detected. The LED will light up red if the signal level is too high which may cause distortion or “clipping”. If this occurs, turn down the Input Gain and/or reduce the output level from your sound source.

Consult your microphone's documentation to find out whether it needs phantom power.
5.Headphone Output: Connect 1/8" (3.5 mm) TRS headphones to this output. The mix you hear from this output will be determined by the Direct/USB Switch. The level of this output is controlled by the Monitor Level knob.
6.Direct/USB: This switch controls whether or not the direct input signal or the USB stream return signal is sent to the Headphone Output and Main Outputs.
•When set to USB, only the USB audio playback from your computer will be heard.
•Set the switch to Direct to monitor the direct input signal with all inputs summed to mono and heard equally on each side. This is useful for monitoring a guitar or vocal mic signal. This switch does not affect the DAW playback or how your sound is recorded into your DAW; it only affects how you hear the input signal in the
Headphone Output and Main Outputs.
