Using the Fostex RM - 3 is quite straightforward. First, connect your audio source to either the analog or digital input. If you're using headphones, plug them into the headphone jack. You can adjust the brightness of the LED meter according to your environment. When switching between headphone and speaker output, the system will fade in the signal to prevent sudden volume changes. For audio characteristics, you can choose between the VOICE mode for regular use and the MUSIC mode for a wider frequency range. As for maintenance, keep the system in a clean and dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures. Periodically check the connections to make sure they're secure. If you're not using the system for a long time, switch it to standby mode to save power.
