Can I Adjust The Volume With The Preamp?

I often see beginner mixing engineers try to use the gain knob to adjust the volume level when things get too loud or they need to boost a specific channel. In this video, I want to explain why this isn't a good habit to get into. Especially in mixing, it's important to use each tool for its intended purpose to avoid problems later on in the signal chain. Hope this helps!
