What is the purpose of the Eurorack's output behaviour? The output meter shows:
clip
6
0
20
This is a normal looking meter with the 20 and the 0 are green lights, the 6 is a yellow light, and the clip is a red light.
I thought clip was 0db. This is proving to be really hard to use. The manual says the output appears at a level of 0dBu. If I turn the output mix knob to "0" (on a scale from -infinity to +15 with 0 at half turn), then I'm getting some signal level called "clip" above "0". LOL What the heck does that mean? It matches the clip signal in the computer on a -infinity to 0 meter (where 0 is clip like I would expect). If I set the channels on the Eurorack to "0", the output to "0", and send a signal from the computer that stays just below "0", the output meter on the Eurorack looks just like the meter on the computer. Except, the signal is +15 or +20db hot. What is the purpose of this and how can I match it's output properly to an input?
