Why am i getting less volume from Outputs 3 and 4?

Im getting significantly less volume from output 3 than i am from output 1? Should i be running the boost/pad up higher on output 3 to compensate?

There are some explanations and suggestions in this thread:

Boost/Pad is NOT for more audible level.

I noticed that. Bumping the output block about 15-16db seems to level it off to output 1. I saw the Other thread mentioned to bump it 20db. That was way too hot I found

Outputs 1 and 2 have a totally different design from Outputs 3 and 4.
Outputs 3 and 4 are designed for unity gain applications.
Where do you have the output knobs? That's the first place to adjust.
Also, be aware that Output 1 and 2 are adjusted by the settings for the two Output Level parameters in the I/O : Audio menu.

Not to hijack the thread, but I just got my III and would like to know the best way to line input via 1/4" and line out mono xlr to FOH and L/R out to stereo power amp? BTW, the manual is huge
