8500 Mixer, where is unity gain, and zero on gain knobs and meters

Post by MattMann » Tue Feb 28, 2023 4:12 pm

Hello all,
I've got the i8500 and I want to use a second i8500 as a sub mixer to give more channels. I bought a tone generator and I want to set them up to run together, following this guys technique to set them up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgeVInOV1Kk&t=958s He starts using the tone generator around.. a little after the 12 minute mark.

But these peavey mixers knobs and meter lights are not labeled like the mixers in his video (and I'm sort of new to setting up a sub mixer).

On the main gain knob (not the channel gain but the overall gain), where is unity gain? (It's dial goes from 1 to 10).

On the channel gain knob, where would zero be?

Finally, on the led light meters, where would zero be?
