low output level?

DX100	Posted on Wed 27 May 2020, 05:23 PM Seems like the overall output is quite low when the digital gain is set at 100% compared to other synths and instruments? I've not yet tried increasing the digital gain, I might do soon though.

DX100	Posted on Sat 30 May 2020, 09:06 AM Although, maybe the overall gain should be saved as part of the performance master volume? If one performance only has 1 or 2 voices and then you jump to a performance with 16 , the volume change is going to be hard to manage live.
dadek	Posted on Sat 30 May 2020, 11:22 PM I'm using 200% running stereo out for now. Over the next few weeks I'll be moving to a multi out workflow, but I doubt that I would adjust down. Where I find I have to do the most gain stage tweaking is in the performance menu FX routing so I have saved a few defaults better suited to my workflow.
