Hello!
One thing that confused me a bit is the level of the input 1/instrument level on the I/O-page in the setup. I recently changed pickups from Solar Humbuckers (medium output) to DiMarzio D Activator pickups that are very hot. It's said you should "tickle the red" and with the Solar Humbuckers that was around 95%. When chaging out these to the DiMarzios I figured I probably needed to lower that significantly. But the my guitar still tickles the red - it's not fullblown red as I imagined it would be.
On Leon Todds setup video, he's on 20 % and tickling the red - that's 75% lower than my guitar!
Can someone elaborate on this?
