Volume-Vinyl to digital.

[DubluW]

Quick question guys and girls.


I've been jumping between mixing vinyl into Digital through my Z2 and X1MK2, and vice versa. The volume output from the vinyl is sounding a little quiet at the moment however and the gain knob doesn't really bring a lot to the party apart from fuzziness at high levels.


Any pointers or settings i might be missing?

Cheers!

Set the gains for the digital lower, so you dont have to crank the gain so much on the vinyl.

Could be a mixture of quiet vinyl, quiet pre-amps in the Z2 that means your having to have them up so much.

What carts do you have?

Cheers amadeus, i shall give that a try.

I have Ortofon OM-Pro S's. The vinyl is plenty loud when mixing with the Z2 in standalone, it's just when i have it running with Traktor and am switching between the two different formats.

I don't know if its the same, but running vinyl as a live input with my Audio 10 was allot quieter than direct thru mode.
