Mute and mono switches allow you to silence the outputs or check mixes for mono phase compatibility, while a handy dim switch with adjustable level control allows you to temporarily lower the output volume without losing the main volume setting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttenuation in the studio\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe SAT-2 can also be used to attenuate signals before sending them to your audio interface, so you can drive your mic preamps hard for coloration without clipping the inputs of the digital audio converter.
