Title: Iriver 120: Setting Gain
Post by: Popmarter on January 17, 2006, 01:17:29 PM

In Recording> Recording Settings> there are two options: ADC Gain Left & ADC Gain Right. What is the best setting for this when recording a concert?

Dunno, but this guy explained it a little (at least what it does):

if you use Petur's patch, that combines both gains into one, and uses analog before the digital decimator...which is the way it should be...so then you won't have to decide.

Petur's Patch (hrmm...sounds a little like a vegetable garden): https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1403437&group_id=44306&atid=439120

Or you could wait a wee bit and it should be intergrated into rockbox soon enough.

Sounds great, i downloaded a file called "20060117_recording_gain_patch" , but i have not a clue what to do with it. I tried reading http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WorkingWithPatches#Applying_A_Patch , but to be honest..... ??? ???

any "Apply a Patch For Dummies?"
