Low signal volume when recording via USB Input 5/6

Hi, all.

 

First time posting in the forum. Love my HX Stomp and have just now started to experiment using it for to home recording. I've plugged it into my MacBook via USB and I'm using Garageband as my DAW software. After a bit of fiddling around, I was finally able to track my guitar unprocessed via USB input 5 (for subsequent processing via Helix Native).

 

I'm completely new to recording but I was expecting the signal to come in louder than it does. It is audible but the wave shape is barely noticeable. The recording level slider is greyed out so I assume I can't set the gain on Garageband but it also looks like there is no gain nob on the Stomp unit for outputs 5&6.

 

Is this low signal level working as intended? I've read elsewhere in these forums that that might be the case given 24bits resolution and good gain staging practices but I wanted to double check since it looks awfully low to my untrained eyes.

 

Any guidance will be much appreciated.
