Be advised that there is many ways of mapping faders to mulipliers. Depending on your practice it is common to have the 0dB (unity gain) mark somewhere 4/5 up the fader's range, which is inherited from analogue mixing desks and which I have found useful in the digital

yeah, I didn't realise that it is the design of the mixertrack screenshot from a known software I've posted before.

domain as well (despite the danger of clipping at the dac). The mapping of a fader's value to the actual multiplicative value is also a matter of feel (tactile). I don't know if there is much research about this

analog mixerboards has been developped for the best expression of human feeling over an amplitude modulator, why looking elsewhere?

topic, I personally prefer the [fadtodb] abstraction by Thomas Musil (iemabs/iemlib) which we use for our productions here at the IEM, and which to my humble opinion comes closest to the analogue desks i love.

yeah that's perfect!

curiously I get 100.111 db at 4/6 from [fadtodb]'s scale.

chease,

Peter
