C) higher gain, lower fader setting.
D) record no higher than 0 dBFS in rms meter mode.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best cure for distortion is to use less gain or insert a pad to reduce the signal level. Setting the master fader to minimum and faders to maximum may help to reduce distortion to some extent, but it is not a recommended practice as it can cause other issues such as noise and reduced dynamic range. Higher gain and lower fader settings can actually increase the distortion. Recording no higher than 0 dBFS in rms meter mode is a good practice to avoid digital clipping, but it does not directly address distortion caused by overdriving an analog circuit.
