[QUOTE="Robert Lofgren, post: 67145, member: 2447"] Re: X32 Discussion I have to consider this one a bug. When using the card as input from i.e. iPad, computer or like and the gain structure is unity gain I have issues with the clip lights. Most modern commercial music is peaking 0dBFS. As such the clip light will come on at the affected channels most of the times. One would think that lowering the trim to -0.3dB (or even -12dB!) would help. However the clip light seems to operate pre-trim so the clip light will come on regardless of the trim setting. My concern is also that the clip light should never turn on for a digital signal unless the trim is set above 0dB. Also, if I take a stereo signal that peaks 0dB and send this to the mono channel I would not expect m/c to show clipping when I set the stereo-->m/c send to -6.0dB. Instead I have to lower it to -6.5dB. The clip lights in these situations are distracting and indicate an non-existing issue and will take the focus away from a correctly shown clip warning. Some extras: ======== When using daw or music players like iPad/iPhone using the card input, it would be nice to be able to operate the trim down to -18dB or even -24dB. I'd like the 'delay + ha link' and 'mute + fader link' to become separated into non-combined switches. [/QUOTE]
