Hi everyone!

Just a question as it’s written from above. Tonex has such an option as well as Kemper, but not NC. Why?

Or I just didn’t find it?

I believe the comparable setting would be the capture volume setting

No… The capture level sets the output from the capture slot.

What is the significance in the input level volume ? Not trynna belittle or anything, I’m just curious on what I’m missing out on

Isn’t the gain knob what you are looking for? As there is no amp model but a capture, the gain nob is the input for the signal. If you press the capture button you can control the capture output volume.

Let’s consider my question as a question about global input settings level which allows to set the input level up for an instrument for all captures. And, in turn, an individual input gain level for the capture adjustment (the way the gain knob works right now). I saw such settings on competitors’ platforms and wonder why I can’t find it here.

Because you don’t need one - just using Gain is fine.
