Hello,
after reading some articles here I decided to try and record my AX8 directly via SPDIF. After some reading I have decided to post in relation to that:
Do you guys experience any variation in level between the SPDIF and the Analog? I know SPDIF is supposed to emulate the signal from MAIN1 all the same but in my Saffire 6i6 I can clearly see a difference between them. One is hitting -2.6dB and the other is at -7dB.
I setup my patches with the analog out to "tickle the red" input on the Saffire. In Ableton with a Gain of -12 on the recording track I was getting nice definition with enough headroom to mix my song ideas.
With the SPDIF there is a noticeable volume drop on the track. Can anybody explain this? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
