There's no input gain on this model at all. In this video I build a simple DIY pad from a cheap 3.5mm extension lead, a capacitor and a resistor to bring the mic level down about 10 dB before it hits the preamp. 🔸🔸 🔸 Videos mentioned in this video: Sound calibrator shown here:    • Can I Fix this PREMIUM Sound Calibrator?   Macbook M5 video:    • I Gambled on this Macbook M5 and I got the...   Omnifixo review:    • I didn't know a THIRD HAND could be SO GOOD!   KENABLE: https://www.kenable.co.uk/ 00:00 Intro & why a headset mic 02:18 The clipping problem 06:43 The fix: a DIY mic pad 09:43 Measuring a baseline 11:42 Building the pad 15:46 Testing & tuning 18:38 Before/after voice test 20:11 Results & scream test 21:48 Outro
