1. Click the User Profile button on the right side of the Fast Bar and select User Settings.
The User Settings dialog box opens.

3. In the Output Reference Level section, complete one of the following actions:
Type a dB (decibel) level from -50 through -1.
Use the up or down arrows in the menu to select a new level.
