Hi,
I use the submix "outs" of a mackie sr24 to record on a pulsar+ (analog xlr). Knowing that the mackie's outs are balanced (jack) niv = 0 dB and that the pulsar's "in" are xlr niv = +4 dB, I am obliged of maximize my signal to attack pulsar correctly. Does this operation appear to you "healthy" or would be necessary that I manage to use +4 dB "outs" ?

How do you connect your pulsar xlr (use of DI or not, reglage with the profit on the table...) ?

Thank you.

Yes, this should work. Mackie have this "zero equals zero" feature. This affects the level meters on your mackie mixer. If you connect the sub outs to pulsar(XLR in), you can raise signal level in your mixes up to "+4dB" before clipping. In other words, to get +4dBU Output, the meter on your mackie SR mixer will show "+4dB" instead of "0dB" like on other mixers. Just turn it up....

yeah,that'll work.better to match levels in the first place(-10db equipment together).the proper thing to do is use a buffer amp.dbx(cheap) and hosa (cheaper) both market acceptable devices.
