I upgraded my JTV59 to firmware v2.0. I connected up to WORKBENCH HD and checked the GLOBAL STRING SETTINGS. I noticed it had them set as follows:
E 0db
A -3.7db
D 0db
G -2.0db
B 0 db
E -2.5db
I had adjusted the string volumes under WORKBENCH prior to my upgrade to v2.0, but I had adjusted all the string volumes and not just the A,G and high E, so I don't know where these values came from within WORKBENCH HD.
I had also played my JTV at v2.0 through my HD500 and had not noticed any difference in string volumes so was surprised that some were different. I decided to adjust them all back to 0db and did not really hear any difference. So I experimented with moving the sliders and realised that I had to go to -6db or lower to start hearing the difference in volume.
Has anyone else who has upgraded to JTV v2.0 firmware and then gone into WORKBENCH HD for the first time noticed that their GLOBAL STRING SETTINGS were not all set to 0db? And if so, were they set to match what you had previously set or something different or did they match the values I saw listed above?
Does anyone know what the "db" unit is measuring for the global string volumes? It seems to me that a -3.7db value compared to a 0db should be noticeable even at low headphone volumes, but the difference was not noticeable to me - I had to really adjust the sliders way below -6db to notice a volume difference.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
