Thanks Sean. Can you elaborate on what you said in the following: "Also, when
setting your Allan And Heath channel clip level, once it is attenuated at the
input
stage of the operational amplifier, (OpAmp), you shouldn't have to change it
ever again. This should always remain a constant."

Omar,
Use your direct out from each of the individual channels, rather then the
sends, unless your having to sub mix your drums, but, you should be sub mixing
internally with Sonar. This way you will eliminate some electronic hum because
of less circuitry for the signal to have passed through before being sent to
your DAW; likewise, reducing the chance for distortion. Also, when setting
your Allan And Heath channel clip level, once it is attenuated at the input
stage of the operational amplifier, (OpAmp), you shouldn't have to change it
ever again. This should always remain a constant.
Take Care,
Sean

Hello,
I'm using an Edirol FA66 with an Allan And Heath mixer. The FA66 is
connected via the sends and returns of the mixer. I have some samples of basey
808 kicks that I play either through the sfz sampler, or through the dr008
synth. Some of the 808's tend to distort when I play them. Oddly, this wasn't
happening with my Mackie 1604 while using the same drums, and i had the same
type of connection with the Mackie. Any thoughts or suggestions?
