Everybody else: "your mixer is clipping" Laszlo: "well yes but actually no" Also Laszlo: "there's this thing you can do with the fader. You can pull it down. Problem solved!!"

[@knut3hundra649]

I rarely touch the volume knobs in the mixer, I mostly just use the volume knob in the pattern window.

[@SEPICGAMER]

@@knut3hundra649 the knobs in the pattern window adjust input to the mixer. If for example you want to use distortion... When you've turned down the volume through the pattern window, you get less distortion, because the input vol. is low. When turning down the volume from the mixer, however... You have the same amount of distortion, but it's played at a lower volume. Just so you know

[@knut3hundra649]

SHWAM! Yup, this is something i understood through trial and error. If i need to use a certain effect I just boost it a bit, and then lower it back down through the mixer. Usually i feel like that’s not needed cause of how strong the effect vst’s are! You usually have to turn the volume of the effect down anyways..

Just watch the "Should You Buy Refurbished Electronics" Techquickie video. You are missing the point. It was funny, Linus thought it was funny, and clearly hundreds of thousands of other people thought it was funny too.
