Hey José, did some more digging:

Microphone Inputs:

• Maximum Input Level: +12.1 dBu for XLR inputs.

Line Inputs:

• Maximum Input Level: +18.7 dBu for balanced TRS inputs.

I'm not sure I follow, this is documented everywhere as far as I know. But if the manual doesn't work then just check the specifications on its product page, it's all there.

José Suárez

Thank you, but mine is a older model and i cant find it anymore in the site.

Just found this thread after having a similar question about the same unit and has been very informative.

But what position should my input gain knob be to achieve this max input level of +18.7dBu? Since I notices that when set to the minimum gain, no signal comes through, whereas other interfaces have some signal even when gain is set to minimum.

I think we might be inquiring for the same reasons. I am trying to make my setup as compatible with the NeuralDSP plugins as possible and apparently they calibrate the system using a Max input level of 12.2dBu. So lets see if we can get any clarity.

You got it, i'm trying to with neural vst.
