Mbox 3: volume knob - pre or post DAC?
Simple question: where is the volume knob in the Mbox 3 (not pro) : before DAC or behind DAC?

Re: Mbox 3: volume knob - pre or post DAC?
Simple reasoning: How could it be in front? Before the digital data has been converted to analog current? It would have to be a digital step before the DAC that reduced level. And you would lose quality at lower levels as the data would be less to the DAC. No, it's analog and post.

I've heard from different sources that the MBox 3 Pro the volume fader is post DAC. Not sure about the MBox 3 std.
