Hammock Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 (edited) As the topic describes. Has anyone with a BH550/800 encountered this issue? I am not sure if I am connecting correctly, but what can go wrong. I simply connect a xlr in the balanced out on the BH800, and a xlr in on my Apogee Element with +4dBu. When I have normal gain on the BH800 the input on the apogee is only a third on the meter. Am I missing something (since I am not usually connecting my amp like this), here? Or is there something wrong with my amp? Cheers Edited January 23, 2019 by Hammock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Yes, +4dBu is line level and the DI output on your head is mic level, try the -10dBu setting on the Apogee. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't try any other settings before I so desperately went here for help. I was so damn sure that it was a "line" out, and a professional one also, hence +4dBu. But the Element 24 has a mic level option. So I went with that one, and on that setting I can adjust the input level. Thanks again for the help.
