Thread: Strymon AA.1

Can I use this as a level shifter for an Octatrack?

Don’t know. Does the Octatrack take instrument level?

I’d think it takes line level.

Yeah, so the Strymon says it does 18db drop/boost. By the looks of the levels I'd say 12db would be better. 5 volts is obviously way too hot, but 18db down is a bit too low. If line level is 2 volts I wonder what 18db gets you down to.

What you want is something like the Intellijel Audio Interface II. Stereo line in and out. You can use it as a send return for line level gear, or to use your synth as an effect for something in your DAW. That’s a 10hp module.

You can also use the Joranalogue Receive 2 and Transmit 2, which will get you studio quality I/O that can handle anything from mic level to line level in and out.

Also, instrument level is 1-1.736v.
