First off, I have some issues with the volume of my DI's, when recording..
The DI-Box has 2 x -20dB Attenuation switches, but even switching one down to -20dB is too low..
I don't have a volume knob on the git..
So I'm thinking of making a simple volume controller.. but I'm unsure what component to get..
A pot with what value? Linear or Logarithmic?
Secondly, and this might be a stupid question, the m-audio control panel in XP has volume sliders for in/out volume etc. I have 1010LT..
The sliders for in-volume has 3 settings (and manual adjustment):
+4dB
Con
-10dB
The adjustments affect the input volume in Reaper, on a record-armed track etc.
Is this the volume of the A/D converter?
What I'm getting at is that I don't want to clip/overload the input and I'm not sure if I should set the sliders in the control panel to max, and lower the volume before the soundcard or if I can adjust it with the sliders in the control panel..
Hope I'm not to confusing with my questions..
