I just have a question about calibrating my new Crane Song HEDD 192.
My system consists of a P.C. with Samplitude 11 running a Lynx LTWO
card with 4 ins/outs clocked via AES from the HEDD.
The HEDD is functioning as my main D/A for monitoring (and my main A/D for tracking).
When mixing down I send the mix through the digital in/out on the HEDD (and it's process)
and then back into the DAW to record on a separate audio track.
The HEDD seems a little quieter through my monitoring setup (ProAc 100's, NS-10's and Avantone Mixcubes)
than the LynxTWO's outs were (those were running on the Lynx's +4bBu setting and have a maximum output of +20dBu).
My question is this:
What strategies would anyone here use to calibrate the HEDD with it's line trims for both it's analog
ins and outs given my setup? I can generate test tones from within Samplitude if necessary. Do I need to calibrate it?
What is the factory default for the HEDD in terms of it's gain settings?
Any help would be appreciated!
