![II ! ! Although your new console will not make any noise until you feed it signals, it has the capability to produce sounds that, when monitored through a moni-tor system or headphones, can damage hearing over time.The table below is taken from the Occupational Safety & Health Administration directive on occupational noise exposure (1926.52): Duration per day [h] Sound level [dBA, slow response] 8906924953972 1001.5 1021 1050.5 110<0.25 115Conforming to this directive will minimise the risk of hearing damage caused by long listening periods. A simple rule to follow is: The longer you listen, the lower the average volume should be. Please take care when working with your audio system – if you are manipulating controls which you don’t understand (which we all do when we are learning), make sure your monitoring level is turned down. Remember that your ears are the most important tool of your trade. Look after them, and they will look after you. Most importantly: Don’t be afraid to experiment to find out how each parameter affects the sound; this will extend your creativity and help you to get the best results.!Safety Information](https://usermanual.wiki/Harman/MICROCORE/User-Guide-3749418-Page-4.png)

The cutoff frequency of this filter is fixed at 75Hz and it has a slope of 12dB/oct.[3] Mic gain This fader sets the microphone gain.The gain range is 86dB and the absolute numbers on the fader-scale are depending on the Max Level of the analog I/O.
