Well, maybe Chris changed his mind recently. Quoting Mr. Church "...its better to use analog attenuation then digital attenuation. IMO..... And if your already at unity you really are getting to much gain from my preamp and you should back it down a bit on the preamp..."
Makes sense to me and that's what I do. I mean, the 9100 has better/cleaner gain than my recorder's preamp. Why should I attenuate the signal using my recorder and not the 9100?
Just my 0.0000000002 cents.


no need to get snarky dude...its a freakin preamp and some mics.

$2.00

Snarky? Hey, that was never my intention, really.
I just don't agree with you, that's all. Don't take this the wrong way. Anyway, sorry about that.
Take care  :coolguy:

Just a side note...

The 9100 provides a helluva lot quieter gain.  So when adjusting, I'd rely more on the pre.

Also bear in mind that recording in 24 bit is going to give you the 12 db of headroom to work with, so don't push your levels.

And most importantly, ENJOY!

No attenuation and no gain.
