Hi, I have the behringer 1602A eurorack mixer, and it if i record with the main volume level at over -15db, the sound is clipped in cubase's recording. What exactly could the problem be?? all my knobs are in their neutral position and the channel vol sliders are at 0.
Is this what is referred to as headroom? And does behringer have bad headroom?

Remember that the level vu's are averaging out to get results, fast transient peaks aren't shown that mutch and they can cause clipping.
It's a case of suck it and see, keep reducing the input level (on the sound card) until you get an unclipped signal, bear in mind that the actual percieved volume without using a compressor before recording to digital will be quite low, however once in the computer you can use a compressor plugin to raise it up to a more convential volume.
erm, you need a decent sound card for best results, I use a mx1602 and a crapole gold card, my line noise is terrible, way above releasable levels anyway.
erm, I think that's all correct...

'unity' gain by the way is the level at which the fader/pot is neither boosting or cutting the signal.
