I am currently using a Yamaha GF16 board, which I tap at the channel inserts (by half clicking an unbalanced cable), which then goes into my MOTU 828. I've noticed that with this setup, I almost always have to engage the 26db pad on the board, in order to keep the level to the 828 from being too hot.
Looking at the manuals, I find that the channel inserts are listed as sending out 0db (775 mV nominal), but the MOTU is expecting a -10 input (312 mV, I gather.)
Now, I may be confusing unrelated issues here, but I wondering if anyone can speak to this.
Should I try building some inline pads? If I did, what resistor values would you recommend? I was thinking of an L pad, but I get confused trying to figure out the impact on the impedance, if it's relevant here.
Any help is much appreciated!
Here's a pic of the GF16 manual, too...
