Hello Everybody.
I am trying to record my classic guitar but levels are quite low even if preamp levels are about 30 db.
I dont know why. Should I put the audio interface output level a bit higher ? ( even if I read that it is better to keep preamp levels high and audio interface levels low).
Maybe it is also given by the fact that DAW db levels by default is set at -36 db?
Or should I get closer to the mics (I am recording at around 30-40 cm of distance..)
I am using the following items.
-two matched pair Oktava mk-012
-Sontronics sonora preamp
-M-audio Audiophile interface
-goes into Ableton Live 8
Thanks!!!
