Hello all,
I am to figure out what 0dbv is in relation to my A/D converters.
Here is what I was told by RME, I currently own a multface
Input level for 0 dBFS @ Lo Gain: +19 dBu
Input level for 0 dBFS @ +4 dBu: +13 dBu
Input level for 0 dBFS @ -10 dBV: +2 dBV
So, I have come up with this
Lo Gain I have 19db of headroom, then 0 dbv = -19dbfs
balanced +4 I have 13db headroom, then 0 dbv = -13dbfs
unbalanced -10 I have 2db of headroom, then 0dbv = -2dbfs
Please tell me I'm lost in the woods, because all I own is unbalanced gear. I really don't want to spend my next paycheck on DI boxes and balanaced cables.
