Gear Addicts Quick Tip: Test Tones, Levels, and Gain Staging with the StudioLive 16.4.2

Even a meager home studio is littered with more gains, trims, volumes, gazintas and gazoutas than one can know what to do with. All of this sequential amplification can lead to clipped gazintas, noisy tones, and, if you’re not careful, tinnitus. So how do you figure out all of your input and output levels?

Properly gain staging your recording devices is critically important, and only a little tricky.  Leave it to Gear Addicts to demystify it all—just for you!

Well, just for you and anybody with Internet access. But still. Worthwhile viewing.

MAXIM Brings the StudioLive and ADL 700 on the Road

[This just in from Guido Craveiro, who is taking his StudioLive on the road with his band, Maxim!]

Hey PreSonus! 

I’ve been using  my StudioLive 24.4.2 for monitoring, and we just got another for front of house.  We did the entire October Maxim  tour with both consoles!
I recorded this performance using all 24 tracks, which I mixed later at home in-studio. The main vocal and bass are both run through the ADL 700. Wishing you all the best and a good entrance to 2014!
