The quiz gives you four answers; here there are none. Setting a level by ear, without looking at a meter, is what a mix engineer does all day.

The change is a whole number of decibels from −20 to +6. The exact value scores 10 points, within 2 dB scores 5, and the wrong side of zero always costs a life.

Start at 0: decide first: louder or quieter.

Big drops: below −10 dB the loop sounds thin and far away.

Use the bypass: the jump at the switch is the change you are measuring.
