Hi all,

I have an 08 dual xeon Mac Pro running Pro Tools 10.3.1-ish.

I use the Mbox Pro as an interface bc, well, I think it's alright, and I'm not large enough to need a rack mount.

Using Roland TD-11's, running the 1/4" to 1/4" into channels 1 and 2 of the Mbox Pro, cranking the gains on it, cranking the gain on the armed track, and the volume of the TD-11's is still low. It's not peaking anywhere, it's just too low no matter how much you gain up.

There is a type of limiter on the back, two buttons that go from -10db to +4db. those are both set to the what puts out the most volume.

Opening Mbox, I've activated the the inputs and gained to 0db (topped out).

The volume on the module is also maxed out to 100.

Is there something I'm missing with this?

I haven't tried the USB much because as a midi controller it can't keep up with my crazy drum skills, not. But seriously, it won't keep up. So I figured, just line out direct to the Mbox, cuz I like the drum kits on the TD-11 just fine. But the volume is crazy low.

It's so ridiculously low, that I feel like I have to be missing something, and this whole part of the process (connections, routing, sends etc) is new to me. So, any ideas would be helpful.

If this is in the wrong forum mods, maybe you could move it. It was kind of a toss up.

In the end, she'd become so abusive to Chris ( audiokid ) and myself (sometimes publicly but mostly through PM's) that Chris and I were left scratching our heads trying to figure out just exactly what we'd done to deserve her onslaught.
Every time we'd had to reign her in, it was always done as respectfully as possible; but she'd hit back with serious verbal abuse against us, most of which had nothing to do with the reason we'd even talked to her in the first place.

She could be pretty abusive towards new members, as well...

We understood that she was on medication, which is why we cut her so much slack for so long.
I actually liked Remy for quite some time, finding her to be very intelligent and innovative.
But then she started posting rambling, confusing posts and hurling personal insults towards others, and it just became too much to bear, and she was affecting the forum in a negative way, to the point where she was scaring off both new and old members.

I did find her to be a great contributor, and an asset to RO for quite sometime.
There's certainly no doubt that she had knowledge and experience. It's just too bad that she became so abrasive and abusive towards others.

-d.

Yeah, I found her and her many posts.

Coincidentally, my last name is David. I've never heard anyone outside my family with that last name. My Nana's name is Ann David. But I don't know anyone named Remy.

Maybe my nana has a secret music life, and nickname I never knew about. lol. (definitely not)
