Anyone? I need to know if the Mic Gain knob really does have a minimal affect or does it behave like the Output volume knob. I may have a broken unit here.

Are you recording the dry or the processed signal? Used to have this problem, try to use the +18 db button on the mixer tab in Pod Farm. Also check how your guitar is set up. Your pickup height may be too low.

So I bought a Ux1 and tried plugging a Samson Q7 in(which definitely works). The dry output is very weak, barely hits 30 db. So in Podfarm, I hit the +18 db and I use a preamp to set the drive to 50. The output can hit 18 db which is still pretty weak but that makes the sound very thin and also amplifies the noise to bad levels. In addition, no amount of tweaking with the Mic Gain knob produces any audible difference. Is this really how the Ux1 works? Line 6 monkey says all green, and the instrument output works well. Thanks for any help!

Tried saving an empty patch with only the mixer settings but it's still the same outcome. As long as I only use Pod Farm, the mixer settings are kept but as soon as I use something else, the settings get reset. Do Line6's drivers really act this way to everbody? The mixer should really be in Line 6 Audio-MIDI Devices instead of just in Pod Farm. Wonder how my mics will sound in the UX1...

Hi guys, I recently bought a Ux1 and it works swimmingly except for the mixer settings keep getting forgotten after I close off Pod Farm or applications I use to record the input. I have Windows XP, Monkey is all green, and have the Line6 ASIO as my default recording input. When I first plugged my guitar in, the levels are in the -15db range but I want it in the -8db range and close to clipping at max. So I went to Pod Farm, and seeing that the mixer is already at max, set Send 1 to dry input, turned on +18 db and turned down the fader by 12 db. That works well until I exit PodFarm, which resets the fader to 0db but still keeps the +18db turned on which then clips the signal A LOT. Visiting the built-in mixer in Windows, I set the recording input to a level that is good(half-way), but opening and closing applications like Reaper still resets the level. The fader in the Windows mixer stays in the same half-way position but it acts like it's in full, until you move the fader a bit and then the input level snaps back to the real value. Am I doing something wrong? And how should I go about to set the instrument input to a louder level? thanks guys!
