LTO LTO TM 10 the subwoofer will be mounted in the trunk or rear firewall and will be the furthest speaker from the listener/driver , so this will often be the 'zero reference'. If the subwoofer's sound enters the passenger cabin via a vent, consider the mouth of the vent to be the zero reference point.
LTO LTO TM 11 Press ESC to quit the Input Gain Setting mode. It is important to optimize the Input and Output Gain settings of the UCS PRO to ideally match the output from your car audio head unit and the input stage of your power amplifier(s). The optimum settings will ensure the lowest possible noise and no distortion.

LTO LTO TM 17 Refer to the details under Input Equalization - the available parameters are identical. Pressing NEXT steps through each of the available EQ bands for Output 1, and then Output 2, and so on to Output 6.
LTO LTO TM 18 Compressor/Limiter (Edit Menu): - The Compressor/Limiter ( ) function allows the signal of each individual output to be kept within a set level range. This gives several benefits. By limiting peak output levels it helps protect the components of a sound system and at the same time provides a more consistent listening level.
19 LTO LTO TM avoid an audible distortion, but the signal roll-off beyond the level threshold setting is very rapid. T urning the rotary control counter-clockwise selects various compression ratios, from 20.
