Need help on how to calibrate VU-meters on Rane Empath
Hi everyone,
I just registered on here because I'm having an issue with my mixer.
I already asked for help on DJ related subreddits but haven't had a reply so far, so I figured I'd try asking here:
I'm seeking for guidance on how to "calibrate" the VU-meters on my beloved Rane Empath.
I recently took everything apart to apply some Deoxit on all the pots and faders, and after reassembly I noticed that one side of the VU-meter is louder than the other by a couple decibels.
I must have knocked one of the two yellow plastic screws that control the VU-meter at some point.
Can anyone suggest a procedure to fix this? Should I just fiddle with it and eyeball it?
I'm afraid I will not be able to match both sides 100% because of the 2db increments on the VU-meter (one side could be 1db louder and I wouldn't see it for example), I don't know which side got louder/weaker and I don't want to exceed the original 0db value or alter the tension on the mains if that makes sense?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
