Hey Everyone,
I was browsing through the archive section of the UA Webzine and came across this quote from the article \"Why Does the 1176LN sound so cool?\"
\"The top button on the right side of the meter switches the meter to show the amount of gain reduction, while the central two buttons display the output level referenced to either +8dBm or +4dBm levels. Be aware that the two output metering positions can introduce a little more distortion. Depending on your view, this may or may not be a bad thing.\"
I've never pushed one of those gain metering buttons in - I've always left it set to \"gain reduction\" metering. Do they introduce \"a little more distortion?\" Is it audible, or is this strictly a \"tech\" observation? Curious to try these myself, but I'm away from the studio (garage) for a while...
