Hi, i have a quick question, when recording my vocals i've noticed that the gain knob on the audio interface is always too low until it reaches about 90% full when it jumps massively and its really hard to tweak this to get the vocal just right and not too high (above 90%) which introduces too much noise.
Right now i'm using a Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 and i have tried both a Rode-NTK and also a Shure Beta 58 microphone and they both have this problem. Prior to getting the Scarlett Audio Interface, i used both a Focusrite Voice Master Pro going into an E-mu 1820m Audio Interface as well as plugging the mics straight into the E-mu Audio Interface itself.
The main problem is that you have to get the AMP volume up to like 90% where you have to nudge it just slightly to get the desired volume without it being set too high and introducing more background noise.
Is this normal?
