We have the QU32 connected to the mac and we have a single microphone on someone speaking at an event. That person’s vocal levels are fine in the house, and everything seems just right regarding the live signal.
Where we’re confused right now is why the input level ( which is set to unity gain ) in Ableton Live on the corresponding input track is so low in volume.
Since we’re connected to the QU32, the input volume controls in Audio/Midi Setup or Audio Preferences aren’t available (since we control them with the QU32.)
Is there a way to increase the signal before it gets to the iMac without affecting the signal being sent to the DSP (house speakers).
Or, are we potentially doing something wrong regarding how we’re recording?
Is this a pre/post fader level scenario whereby we could route the signal straight to the iMac and thus Ableton Live before it even leaves the channel strip to the DSP?
