I finally had a chance to update, so I skipped the previous beta (let's pretend it never happened) and I think the new volume display is glorious. The bars make it easily readable, the dB values make it precise and reproducible. So much more transparent, no more guessing what actual volumes lie hidden behing the old 0-10 number.
@jpoelmans is using the powered output, i.e. Monitor Volume, I think. So the Main Out's -12dB pad does not apply, but there should be a +12dB boost for the internal power amp that you could turn off (if you haven't already).
I was going to remark that the volume knob shouldn't be seen as a traditional one with a fixed scale from zero to ten over one full rotation. Like @Monkey_Man said, it strongly depends on speed: if you turn it slowly, you can go around many times before you get to 0dB.
But I just played with it a little myself and I do notice that the accuracy is much less in the very low volumes. I.e., it goes from -40 to -35 much quicker than it does from -20 to -15, even if you turn it very carefully. I can imagine that would make it hard to adjust if you have no volume control down the line (on the speaker, for instance).
