Hi all,

New to the forums and a new user of the Mixing Link. 

Just wondering where people run the INPUT GAIN, GAIN BUTTON & AMP LEVEL settings to get the same apparent loudness as running direct into the amp?

I currently have the GAIN BUTTON on HI and both INPUT GAIN & AMP LEVEL at about 1 o'clock. It still sounds a little less than direct but I'm worried that the PEAK LED is already lighting up too much.

Thanks!

Stew

Hi Stew,

Can you tell us a little more about your set-up. What mic are you using? Normally hi-gain is only necessary for ribbon mics.
Also how are you using the MIX knob/switch? This control can also affect unity level through the box.

thanks,
