Volume Training Lesson
Overview
With this lesson you will learn how to keep your volume levels at a proper output level. Being able to have good control of your volumes will help you out when you play songs recorded at different levels from records or CD's recorded at various levels.

Instructions
We've created two lessons for Volume Training, one is basic for new DJ's and the second will be more intermediate. Each lesson uses Track 6 on either CD. Play the track and listen to the music, soon you will hear the volume change. Your goal is to use the Line Fader on either Channel 1 or 2 to adjust the audio level to stay at a proper output level. Try to use your eyes by looking at the meter lights and use your ears by listening for distortion. Try to avoid letting the LED lights clip in the red area or if you have VU meters, try to keep the meter needle from hitting the red area or all the way to the right.

There is no mixing involved in this lesson, it is just to help you practice controlling the volumes. After this lesson you should understand more about audio volumes and how to control them live by using the mixer.

Look at the meter diagram on the right and you will be able to get a general idea on the ranges of an LED meter.
