Hello everybody,
I'm feeling kind of stupid for asking this, especially because I asked before. I think it was Mark who responded and he suggested I study the specifications in my manuals of both my monitors and my DP. Further I searched in the tutorials that Phill posted (a regular gold mine. Thank you so much!!) and the technical explanations CMaffia offered (also very useful and also many thanks!!). However I still don't understand what setting I should use on my active monitors.
Maybe someone can enlighten me. I'd like to know what setting to use and also why that is.
The specs on the DP -as everybody here probably knows- say something like:
0dBFs gain +10,2 monitor out (max) +14dBu
-16dBFs monitor out (nominal) -2dBu
The specs on the monitors say:
Input level for 85dB SPL @ 1m (+4/-10)
Input level for max peak SPL (+4/-10)
The settings on the monitors are nominal, +4dB and -10dB
It makes no sense to me...
Thank you very much in advance!
kind regards,
Maurits
