Also turning a signal down at the DI box in order for it to be amplified at the preamp isn't exactly best practice from a gain staging point of view. A computer app called Saffire MixControl handles the basic setup of the interface, allowing you to set the clock source, lightpipe configuration (ADAT or S/PDIF), sample rate (up to 96kHz), Firewire driver latency (with short, medium, long, and very long options) and ASIO buffers (anywhere from 32 to 2048), and I/O routing, as well as using its. I think that is mainly a mic mixer since it has preamps for every input - not that it couldn't be used for anything of course - but it's designed to work with 8 mics.

With a BSS AR133 I can still clip the input of my A&H Zed R16 (6dB minimum gain) if I play hard enough. : Used and New: Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 Professional 20 In / 20 Out Firewire Audio Interface with Eight Focusrite Pre-amps. For example the BSS AR133 goes from 1 Mohm at 0dB, to 47 Kohm with the -20dB pad in. Using a DI you can pad the signal, but depending on the design this can alter the input impedance to something less than optimal. Videos you watch may be added to the TV's watch history and influence TV recommendations. If playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device. The problem is caused by the interface being designed with a high amount of gain even at the pot's lowest position (I think on the Focusrite's it's something lke 10-13dB!) This tutorial video explains through the Saffire Pro 40's features and serves as a guide through using the Saffire Mix Control software. Or at least not without possibly causing more. The latest version of Saffire MixControl, the software mixer environment included with all Focusrite Saffire PRO audio interfaces and the Liquid Saffire 56, is now available. AudioTechnology magazine (ISSN 1440-2432) is published by Alchemedia Publishing Pty Ltd (ABN 34 074 431 628).
Your signal is still going through the mic amp, just it's coming in via the instrument input which adjusts the impedance for a guitar/bass.Īlso be aware folks, buying a DI box isn't necessarily going to solve your problems in a situation like this.
