Problems with audio levels

Hi waverider,

Have you checked that the input trim level (top of the rack) is set to 0db. This can seem dummy but I've actually already had the problem.
Rgds,

the master out modulates a lot lower than it should on my system. again I am a newbie, but it is pretty easy to set all faders at 0.

So I will have to look further and check another time to be sure if all this is correct:
-> master IN vu meter 0dB
-> track IN gain fader at 0dB
-> track IN vu meter at 0dB
-> track OUT gain fader at 0dB
-> track OUT vu meter at 0dB
-> master OUT gain fader at 0dB
-> master OUT vu meter 0dB

and will come back later...

merci Olivier

j'espère expérimenter plus avec usine ce logiciel semble extrèmement intéressant, peut-être je pourrai dépasser les limites de ableton
alors à bientôt...

Normally, Usine has a unity gain.
Just tested on my system with a calibration CD

CD 0bB
-> master IN vu meter 0dB
-> track IN gain fader at 0dB
-> track IN vu meter at 0dB
-> track OUT gain fader at 0dB
-> track OUT vu meter at 0dB
-> master OUT gain fader at 0dB
-> master OUT vu meter 0dB

everything seems OK

It should work like that,
If not, which vu meter isn't at 0dB?

sorry I am new to usine but what i mean is that usine does not seem to have unity gain, meaning that a track entering at 0db at the inputs will output at a much lower volume even if the master out fader is set at zero

unity gain is 0db = 0db out

when I try it with all faders at zero it outputs something along -10 or -12 db. (with a 0db signal entering at the input)

the same setup in ableton live of course if you input 0db in you will get 0 db out....

so my question is usine has unity gain or is there something I don't get?

thanks

Have you checked the master output level? It defaults to -6 dB.

Hello,

in the first time trying out usine, I followed the quick start -I did the audio thru example.

it works, as I get audio thru, but the levels of input-output do not match. For any level going in (like 0db), the output is much lower.

Is that a known problem? Or a specific problem with my setup? Cause it makes mixing real difficult if a 0db track does not equal 0db in the master section...

Thanks for responding....
