oobboo Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Dear Native-Community, I mostly use Native for Clean and Break Up Tones with my Strat and my ES-type guitar. I have to lower the input level inside Native to about -15 to -10 dB for a dynamic feeling. But I noticed that if I try to achieve a high gain sound for metal or modern rock, I have to raise the input level to about +5 to +10 dB. Otherwise Palm Mutings sound weak and the signal is not hot enough. It may have something to do with the low output of the pickups but with these I definitely have to raise the input level. Or is there another possibilty I overlooked? I use the Audient ID14 interface and the the input gain on this device is at the lowest possible level. Looking forward to your answers :).

rsvette12 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 No you nailed it you have to turn up input level from what I've seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolko60 Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Set your HiZ level once with peaks about -10dBFS and forget it. If you feel some amp models give you too little gain you can use some boost before the amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
