Need some help with gear setup - low signal
Posted: Sun Jan 05, 2014 8:13 pm
Hi,
Total noob here. I'm trying to find out why the audio signal into ableton from external instruments is kind of low. If anyone can lend a hand and check out the setup diagram and let me know if I'm doing anything wrong, that would be fantastic.
As you can see, the volume/level on mixer and synth is pretty high, and yet the signal in ableton is rather low. It's not extremely low, but I feel like it should be higher. Even if I crank things up to max, it still doesn't go beyond -12.
The only potential error that I can think of is the unbalanced cables going in and out of the interface, but I'm not sure if that's what's causing it.
Thank you in advance!
