Is there a difference between kemper xlr out level and spdif out level?

  • hello forum


    I am using kemper stage and motu ultra light mk5.


    I put the main out on the master stereo. It was used by setting the volume to 0.0db and adjusting the volume on the audio interface.


    Then I tried spdif.


    Connect the spdif out to the master stereo.


    Even with both spdif and main out set to -0.0db, spdif has a lot more volume.




    Is there a difference between the original kemper xlr out level and the spdif out level?

    Or is there a difference between accepting xlr and spdif inputs on the audio interface?

  • Lowering all Kemper volumes to -12.0 or -18.0db is a good practice to prevent clipping to other devices. I bet you enjoying that Motu! I have the M4 and the Mk5 is my next upgrade.
