Does Gain Pot Sound Different than Fader?

I chat about the differences between gain and attenuation, setting power amp input levels, self powered speaker levels, do a demo showing the differences is sound and discuss a common myth. The video discusses the difference between gain stages and attenuators, the benefits of using attenuators with professional power amplifiers, and the concept that gain pots can bring up background noise more than faders. It also explains that the differences between using a gain pot and a fader on a cheap Behringer console are very minor, and the Dave promises to do another video to further explore this and other related topics. Ultimately, the goal is to achieve the desired volume level by attenuating or setting the gain stages. 00:00 Intro 00:18 The two ways we control audio level 00:35 First thing a mic or input signal encounters 01:02 Controlled and fixed gain stages 01:55 Difference between gain and attenuation (fader) 02:47 Pan pots attenuate sound to left or right or both 03:25 Attenuators only cut, even if there is markings showing boost 04:57 Gain stages boost 05:23 Volume levels of power amps 07:00 Mixing console out levels vs amp inputs 08:14 Reducing hum or buzz with amp levels 09:03 Setting volume levels on self powered speakers 10:17 Do gain pots and faders sound different? 11:42 Test setup to compare gain vs attenuator 13:01 Lots of gain minimal fader vs minimal gain and lots of fader 14:37 Clipping vs non clipping signal 17:10 Outro If you like this and other videos I do, please join this channel to get access to more videos, early access to videos as well as to be able to join my weekly zoom chats:    / @daverat   Also check out: https://www.ratsoundsales.com/ https://ratsound.com/daveswordpress/ https://www.ratsound.com/ http://www.soundtools.com
