DL16s audio interface recording vocals volume problem
« on: June 12, 2023, 09:24:59 AM »
Hi all…first post here

Does anyone here use their mackie desk as a recording interface? Reason i ask is i recorded some stuff with the band into studio one so i could do a soundcheck without the band. Whenever i record the vocals come out quiet even though with the same fader and gain settings the vocals are booming through the pa when sung live…but playback of recorded vocal tracks is always very quiet in comparison to instruments…i find it very odd and confusing as i would have thought that what i hear coming out of the speakers when we play would translate directly into the daw…all faders are set at unity within the daw whilst recording and the voices are nice and loud through the speakers in comparison to drums and guitars but its as if the usb outs to the daw from the mackie arent pushing the same volume as i get through the desks speaker outs…anyone noticed this?
