Am I right in saying there's about 12db of play between instrument input and output?
When I use the Bypass preset with Global Out1 set flat and level to 0db and Input trim set to tickle the reds and then monitor the I/O levels in the Utility (Status) screen there is a lower Output level.
If I boost the Output level of the Global Out1 by the full 12db (leaving the freq curve flat) then the Output matches the Input in the Utility (Status) bars.
Or should my Instrument In and Out be equal at a flat curve Global Out1 set at 0db level when using an empty preset?
Edit: Or to get to a point .... if I set the levels a la Scott then decide to add a 6db boost IA later sometime, there would still be 6db of headroom before the Output should clip?
