Gain behavior of the Direct Out section
As the Direct Out output is taken just after the Mic-pre analog section, the gain adjustments are not as
smooth and linear as after the digital conversion. The figure below shows the behaviour of the gain on
the Direct Out (in blue) compared to the gain on the digital side (in red).
Note: on the Direct Out the maximum available gain is + 40.1 dB.
