   @thomasfuchs That is some sweet matching audio gear. Analog VU meters and backlit dials and heavy metal knobs and switches everywhere! I used to pore over the Pacific Stereo and Federated ads in the Sunday papers, wishing I could afford a decent system. By the time I could, everything had switched to plastic buttons and LEDs.

   As for recording levels, I just rely on the VU meters to tell me that the input signal level isn't too low or too high.
