Thanks for that advice. I'd heard that about the 8-Bus Mackies, but I
didn't know if it applied to the little ones too. I've also heard
opposite, that some folks had more luck pushing them into the red, so...?

I've basically been running mine at unity througout, so perhaps there
are other things at work here. Hmmm.

Thanks for the advice, Hank.
