Main outputs verrrrrryyyy loud

will check again later

I’d compare BB Main with DIR AB and BB Alternate with DIR CD, same gain.

If levels are the same, then you need unity settings for OT if you want the signal to have the same level back in the mixer from OT outputs.

Signal flow/gain staging diagram for Octatrack MKII

Is there a signal flow or block diagram for the Octatrack MKII? I found lots of text but no diagrams, so here’s my attempt trying to visualise the level & volume controls if it’s any use. The lines show possible connections; they’re not all active at the same time. Am new to the machine so just feeling my way here

OT Setup issue

Your mixer has an alt 3/4 bus which is a second pair of outputs that a channel gets sent to when you press its mute button… A good way to go is: -Plug your OT into the mixer, plug your mixers alt 3/4 outputs into an OT input pair, and press mute/alt3-4 on what ever synth or multiple synths you want to send to OT. You’ll need the OT setup to monitor the synths as they will be sent to OT and you’ll want them to come out of OT which will then flow to your mixer out the mains and into the interface…
