Matching Analog and Digital Levels 

i was confused before.... now im totally lost 😂

Great educational content!

Thank you for making such an informative and clear video. Extremely helpful 🤘

RME IS MY FAVOURITE AUDIO INTERFACE

Outstanding video on the subject

Thank you for the video.

Excelent explanation. Thank you ;)

Thanks !!!

RME interfaces are so flexible. Great explanations here!

i love my fireface UC. i run a tr707 in my setup and with the accent turned all the way up, the kick clips a -10 input. by running it into a +4 channel, i can get all of the internal drive the machine provides. a more moderate accent setting sounds vastly different and if it wasnt for totalmix allowing this, i would be SOL.

Thanks homie

Juste Great 👍🙏

Very useful video, I'll be returning to this. Some things still not clear though: 1. My totalmix only has dBu settings, no 'Low Gain or Hi Gain' or dBv like in this video. The inputs have only two choices - +13dBu or +19dBu. Are there settings in total mix that change the gain menus, or is this just a different version of totalmix? 2. I still don't understand whether "Low gain" refers to the signal coming in, or the amount of gain that's added. (eg.is this option chosen for 'low gain' input signals/instruments, therefore adding MORE gain in the RME, or is this option chosen for 'louder' inputs, therefore using a low gain setting in the RME)?

Thank you for the very helpful and clear video! I am in the process of setting up a hybrid studio with a UFX+ and Ferrofish Pulse 16 MX (connected to the UFX+ via MADI), and plan on incorporating a lot of outboard analog hardware, so I am just at the stage of thinking about this topic. I imagine when I am connecting an analog device via the TRS inputs on the Ferrofish Pulse 16 MX I'll need to set individual input/output sensitivities for each channel in the Ferrofish Menu rather than in Total Mix FX. The Pulse 16 MX is the standard version (+20 dBu), not the +24 dBU model. Are there any additional i/o settings in Total Mix FX that I should be adjusting as well? Thank you!

Thanku sir

Can you explain image at 2:14 ? Shouldnt the level of +4dbu be infact higher than -10dbv. Thanks,

Why not just say ....for example , at +4 dbu , O VU =1.23 volts and that wiol be -12 dbFS ....? Or...am I wrong ? 😜

hallo , great video .Iwanna ask you what is the best way to conect my ucx 2 with adi pro fs r ? Thanks in advance .

I have the babyface pro (not FS) I don't see the option in total mix to switch from -10 to +4. Is there a way to get that in an update? I believe I'm on the latest. What level is the default level for the babyface pro?

Is there a way to change the input and output gain settings globally? From within the TotalMix FX?

I wish I could change the reference level on my focusrite scarlet interface

I am currently using UAD 6176 preamp, Antelope Orion Studio Synergy Core interface. I am thinking of buying RME Adi-2 pro fs R black edition. But honestly, I have been searching for the information as how will it add value to my current gear? Should the ADI sit between PC and interface? How can I utilize the DAC into my recording? Or it's just for monitoring purpose alone? Thanks.

Danke Thank's ; Frage wäre in der Zukunft zu den Monochrom / Single Farben EQ Levels es möglich im oberen Bereich (-10/15/.. bis 0 dB)eine Zusatz Farblichen Levels Variation Auswahl Software mäßig um eine Gewisse Optischen weniger Langweilig und Optisch Unterhaltsamer wäre. Bei Grün mit Gelb Rot Traditionell , Bei Grau/Weiss mit Blau und Rot , bei Rot / Orange mit Hellblau und Lila ? Oder gar einen Old School dB Meter Look mit Halbrund Skalierungen der dB mit Doppelzeiger auf einer Achse oder 2 dB Meter obwohl der Platz ist wohl zu Gering zur Darstellung.

For analog gear specially for tube gears referenc level between -12 and -14dbu gives the best results..

Thanks for the video. Questions : where are these settings options in the Babyface Pro FS interface (via Totalmix) ? Where are these specs in the manual (what numbers to look exactly, in case of the Babyface Pro FS manual, for example) ? What I can see (page 78) : Max. Input level +8 dBu (for Microphone). Max. input +13 dBu (for line Instrument). How can I find the reference level number(s) ?

Hello there. Great video. Question: can I use RME audio interfaces with an iPad Pro (USB C)? I’m looking to replace my current interface for a new and better one. I hope you can help me. Thanks 🙏 in advance.

So to make the long story short, since i am really confused now. What is the best setting for my ableton channel and my xlr mic? To give me the most flexibility. I just wanna make sure i have this set properly. Thanks

My old RADAR could be set as high as +24dbu Real nice when recording drums. +19dbu seems a bit low to me.

Hello I have a question… So according to Fab DuPont pro tools HD converters are calibrated to equal 0 VU at -18 dbfs. It's very confusing to figure out What the UFX + is calibrated to? Monitors are set to +4 and set to +4 in total mix. If that makes any difference. I use cubase pro 12 I just want to know what avrage levels would be considered the sweet spot. For RME converters. Basically does -18 dbfs in my daw equal 0vu? essentially when recording in what is the optimal level

This is great and all but what I want is a loopback channel that doesn't require sacrificing an input channel. The mixer is virtual. Why is this so hard.

Can't find this option anywhere. HDSPe MADI & HDSPe AIO Pro. Last available drivers. Is it (again) a MacOS only feature?

Very informative, and i really like RME. But hearing pops and sibilance from your mic and reading the word “decible” instead of “decibel” does not do the brand justice.

How did you changed channel names at TotalMix ?

My babyface (1st edition) doesn't have this option (+4 etc). My old 9632 did. Why is that?

Is there a way to get more than 32 inputs via rme interfaces?

There is a fault at 6:50 of the video. In Hi Gain, 0 dBFS correspond to +19 dBu!!!! and gives 15 dB!!!! headrooms?

I was just researching Dynacord processors and I open this video to see a P20 in the rack. So random.

a bit technical overcomplication for the beginner, but necessary for the rest of us

Love your gear, but the audio of your videos is terrible.

i hear that ur voice is to edited, that does not sounds pro
