Hi all - new guy here.
Love the unit.
Ive got alot of 'hiss' - high noise floor on my outputs including Cans. Im using the MH to send to my powered monitors, the hiss is significant. I have set a -18db cut in the monitor control but still have hiss. I do not hear the hiss on playback after bounce (AND playing back thru a DIFF audio device) so I believe this is just output and is not tracking the hiss.

I have read that its best to use a physical (inline resistor) cut b/c the outputs are so hot.

Am I missing something in the manual? - I have outs set to -10.
Is this type of hiss normal without a physical cut?

(Yes I verified its not the playback monitors)

thanks
