IR-200: The sound input to the IR-200 is distorted.

The input level on the IR-200 may not be set to a value that’s appropriate for the guitar’s output level.

You can improve the sound quality by adjusting the LEVEL parameter for INPUT.

The IR-200 can store 10 kinds of input settings (SETTING 1–10). You can set an input for each memory, or you can set the same input for all memories.
