Re: Pre-amps/Signal Flow question on DIGI 002 rack
[/QUOTE]
There is a simple test. If you select line, but the gain control still works, the preamps are not bypassed, merely padded.

No. that is not necessarily true. Take a look at some audio mixer signal path line drawings. By switching to another jack, like switching between an XLR and 1/4", you can easily bypass the pre amp stage and send the 1/4" directly to the make-up gain stage.
