002 Rack Line input low level
Hi,
I own a digi 002 rack, with a dbx 266 xl and a joemeek preamp connected to the line inputs 5-8. dbx outputs are set to +4 dbu, joemeek delivers high level outputs and 002 line inputs are set to accept +4 dbu levels. Despite all that, input levels shown in protools are hopelessly too low. - dBx compressor (balanced) when used as an external insert (i.e: thru line 5 output-input) with no gain attenuation and output level set to 0 db come back with almost 10 db of attenuation or more. - Joemeek preamp (unbalanced) with input almost peaking and output gain nearly at its max give max -16/-12db in protools If someone has already encountered this kind of troubles or knows what it's all about; let me know.. Thanx <font color="#666666"> |

Re: 002 Rack Line input low level
Sounds like your gain staging is screwy somewhere... Figure it out part by part:
Does the Joe Meek have any kind of metering or an overload led? If so drive it until you are getting a hot signal at that point. Quote:
