Yamaha has designed the PLG150-AN to be -12dB = 0dB, to leave headroom for the +12dB EQs
same happens in Kenton Plugstation + PLG150-AN with digital adat outs
=its not a DA converter issue in PLG150-An.
�
(A) in PLG150-An�the output gain can be changed� upto +12dB
sysex 43 10 5C 10 00 1B :::
43 10 5C 10 00 1B 00 = 0dB
43 10 5C 10 00 1B 01�= +6dB
43 10 5C 10 00 1B 02 = +12dB
�
(B)�some patches have VCA Volume knob value set lower than 100%
(C) some patches have distortion output level less than 100%, + DRY/WET at full WET
�
sollution #1. get a midi controller that allows sysex, and read the An1x.pdf manual
and midiox too see/test midi sysex
�
novation remote zero/25/37/61 sl, compact
encore knobby
mackie c4 / c4pro
cant remember if behringer bxx2000 allows sysex,
others cant
�
or Sollution #2: get an analog mixer with inserts and insert a compressor analog or digital like presonus 88, dbx160sl, rocktron/rsp 360, tc c, etc...
or an agc leveler like symetrix 421/421m that makes the sound so nice, but a bit noisy
"the two 421 i had, are the only�ones i still miss from analog, they do something so nice to the sound, like a nice face lift, like magic�"
or aphex compellor, etc...
�
or Sollution #3. get a digital mixer with a digital compressor in each channel,
like roland vs2480, behringer ddx3216, and store the settings
�
and use a�2:1 ratio or lower, and full low -40dB or more threshold
attack 15 , release 150 or too your�taste
�
or Sollution #4. get a multiband mastering compressor & limiter
a vsf3x plugin card for vs2480, 
or tc finalizer plus/96k or tc M5000/system 6000, or behringer 9024, 2496, dbx quantum 1or2, drawmer 2496 9624, ensoniq dp/pro, etc...
or an old analog orban optimod, + aphex dominator 2 720/722
or a pa crossover like jbl m553 + presonus acp88 + an small�mixer with 8 inserts
�
or�a >T7200�laptop + magma pcmcia to pci/e chasis with a verry fast soundcard like lynx aes16 with a verry fast AD/DA chips like rme adi-8qs or lynx aurora8, maybe mytek 8x192, 
most 192k chips are verry slow compared agaiinst 96k or 48k chips
�
32samples = 0.77msec.x2 + <1msec. 192k AD+DA = faster than any digital mixer
most 96k/48k chips are 1.5sec x2
with any mastering plugin korg mde-x, yamaha, mackie, psp,t-racks,etc...or a tc powercore compact with a tc md3 adds soundcard latency x2
�
or a 0-latency dsp efx soundcard like sonic-core 14-dsp with the mastering plugins
etc...
�
or Sollution #5.....
