Patchbay pads signal by -18db

Hi,

I was testing this old Tascam PB-32 patchbay by running a 1'4" cable from one of the back jacks into the line in on my console, then plugging a bass into the matching jack on the front. It worked, but it attenuated the signal by -18db when compared to the bass plugged directly into the line in on the console. Does anyone know if this is normal for Tascam patchbays?

Good sound baffles

This may sound silly or widely used but I picked up some used office partitions at a outlet store that sells used office eqipment.

They happen to work great. I got plenty to go around the drums with a somked plexi one for the center so I could see the drummer. And smaller ones for the guitar amps.

Hope this could work for someone as well.
