Can someone help me out here!? Below are the specs for the instrument input of my audio interface ( Audient id4 mkii ).
If I have input gain on the audio inerface set at zero, how much should I boost the signal in the DAW!? I'm using Reaper. I've alwaysused the input gain of the audio interface to find the sweet spot for my guitars, by strumming hard while trying to stay in the -24 to -12 db range, just like most amp sim makers recommend, but if your suggestion could yield better results, I'm all in. Thanks.
D.I / Instrument Input
RANGE: | 40dB |
LINEUP: | 12dBu = 0dBFS |
THD+N @ 0dBu: | 0.1% |
SNR: | 100dBu A-Weighted |
FREQUENCY RESPONSE – MIN GAIN | ±0.5dB 10Hz to 20kHz |
