Hi Flo, +list Thank you for your answer. I just found out that you are correct about +4dBu or -10dbV, but that is for hammerfall 9632, mine is a 9636. In the configuration dialog and manual there is no such option to adjust input levels as far as I can see. this seems to have changed between 9632 and 9636. I guess I need to get some more gear to amplify both keyboard, piano and microphone. Thank you,and have a good day Greg > > > Flo > -- > Machines can do the work, so people have time to think. > public key 6C002249 x-hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.
