My music gains are at 10-11 o'clock.   Any less and you would not be able to hear them.

Depends on the mixer & where unity is located.

If I had the music gains any higher they would red line.  Any lower and you won't hear them.

Every mixer I have ever seen has the unity sweet spot in the same location on all of the faders.   It's usually at about 3/4 volume.


There is no unity on the gain knob.

But I just read my manual and it says that the gain knob should be adjusted for 0 dB level at the R meter.   It says proper adjustment will maximize the signal to noise ratio.      My mixer has a PLF switch right beside the gain knob to depress while you do the adjustment.    I'll have to check them Tuesday night and see what they read.

Right - 0db=unity!  As I said, unity is usually marked with a "U" or a "0".

If I ran all of the faders (channels & masters) at unity, the walls would blow out because the volume would knock them over.  :O  :yes:

Well if you would actually read instead of putting words into ones mouths I have never stated running all faders at unity.  I said the gains as close to unity per channel - or set under clipping (clip light rarely lighting - an occasional blink is ok, constant blinking or steady lights no good).  I said the faders as close to unity as possible - this gives a little headroom per channel for adjustments either up over unity or under & the master fader is the main volume control - not at any set position could be set low, or it could be set high depending on the needs of the volume.  But doing so, gives the system the best signal to noise ratio in the main outputs.
