Not really spectacular but not a disaster either, if true. Also according to the specs, max input without pad is +8.5 dBu, and gain range is 50 dB. So 0 dBFS at max gain should be -41.5 dBu at the input. Combining this with the given EIN, you should measure -85.5 dBFS(A). I guess that the -61 dBFS is even without DC filter, a classic mistake. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
