Thanks WK154. I actually found the 200+ page reference manual for Master Fader 3.0, and saw that as well. The manual mentions nothing of the trim at all. I am assuming that the trim is for finite adjustments?
I will be giving it a good test over the next few days.

The gain is for the xlr input channels, u dont need the trim
If u route the usb to the channel then u have to use the trim, the gain does then nothing ( gain is for the preamp)

I have it all disconnected at this point, but I could swear when I had a Mic plugged into channel 1, for instance, if I had the gain up, and then raised the trim, it did change the level. Again, I was playing around with everything so I could be wrong (Getting old ya know lol) .... I'll definitely pay attention to this more. But as you guys noted, I will leave the trim alone and use the gain for the inputs (XLRs) Thank you!

As I mentioned in another thread the trim unfortunately is in the common path of preamp and USB/Dante in the DL32R. It would have made more sense to make trim just for USB/Dante input.
