rwinking Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I have a Helix rack and am suing it exclusively for FX. Up until I got it, I had been using the GSP1101. There is a big volume difference between the two. Say I am running the master on my amp at 12:00 and then using 4CM, I have to run the Helix around 1:00 to get any gig volume. On the GSP I only have to run it around 10:00 to get the same volume. Is there a reason for this or am I doing something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolko60 Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 GSP1101 line level is 23dBu FS, Helix (line level) is 18dBu FS. It should not bother you because Helix Volume Knob is a digital attenuator (before DAC) so turning it counterclockwise deteriorates SN ratio. And yes you can also do something wrong in setting levels and keeping too big headroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
