Get gain right and everything else falls into place. Really!

Even though managing levels is one of the core concepts in live audio its still widely misunderstood. Today I hope to unpack exactly what the gain knob does (and how it affects the device its attached to) and how to use it properly.
We'll cover:

Is it "bad" if your gain is super high?

What levels should you be shooting for?

Should you use a pad?

And much more!
