[lumiere] "I don't use the Kona audio for my Mac's audio output.
I only use the Kona audio in FCP.
-20db tone is perfect on the deck."
The volume control on your Mac also controls the volume of the audio playback through your Kona card. The volume on your Mac should remain at four clicks from full. I have seen instances of full volume on a Mac causing some distortion on audio playback. that's why I asked. All of our machines are set to "unity."
