Set it to a level that complements the overall mix without causing distortion. 4. Monitor the output level: Keep an eye on the peak LED and the channel fader levels. If the peak LED lights up frequently, reduce the TRIM control and check the channel EQ settings. Adjust the channel fader to maintain a balanced output level. 5. Test different audio sources and cables: Connect different audio sources and cables to the DJ gear to rule out any issues with specific devices or cables.
