This is what is being used between the microphone and the multiface:

This is providing line-level output to the multiface.

Just wondering if I am doing things right. Trying to record a 94 dB SPL
sinusoid using a B&K microphone connected into the analogue input of an
RME multiface card, I see levels at about -37 dB. This is when the
hdspmixer is set such the recording level is the most sensitive.
Is this about right? This means that I can potentially record very high
levels but I am worried about missing out the lower levels.
So you don't have a microphone preamp? The line inputs of your multiface
are meant for line level inputs. A microphone produces very low output
compared to line level, that is why microphone pre-amplifiers are used.
If you don't have one, you need one. Trust me. :)
