  Decklink Studio Audio Levels

  Posted by Ryan Mckenna on February 25, 2010 at 4:32 am

  I recently purchased a decklink studio, and hooked it up in my macpro 2007.
  I am running analog 1/4 to rca from ch1 and 2 to genelec 6010a speakers.

  When using decklink audio on the mac Even with the volume completely down on the mac, abd set to -12 in the decklink control panel the audio clips and distorts quite alot.

  is there another setting im missing.

  I do have a mixer i could try to add if there is some reason why i shouldn’t hook speakers directly up to card

  Generally you should be using a mixer with any capture card.
