Original Message 1/9 02-Jan-01 @ 10:52 PM - Output levels / input gains
Doing a search for the following, I couldn’t find a clear answer :
First, to get the best possible sound quality do I max the volume output from each sound module, and then set the input gain on each 01v channel as high as possible without clipping ? Or do some sound modules distort at the higher volume levels ?
Second, given the right input the 01v makes interesting noises when I set the input gain well above the clip level. Could this damage the 01v ? Or is it designed to take that sort of abuse ?

i turn all my instruments up as high as they will go and then set my levels accordingly on the o1v..
i never have problems with things being not loud enough, cuz you can compress them and stuff to fix mix problems without adding too much more volume.

Do you have any thoughts about the second question - could setting the input gains well above clip level damage the 01v ?

Yamaha will probably pay for the repair if your 01v is not too old.

"Probably will" - might depend on which country you live in. But anyway - they should...
