It's probably more laziness than dishonesty. Who wants to RMS match everything after an EQ change. That's probably why I frigging love the Autogain so much on SlickEQ. It solves the gain staging problem without me having to do extra work.MickGael wrote:Slate is another example where many (if not most) presets actually increase the output gain, and inherently skew the sound.
Call it a pet peeve, but I find it slightly dishonest.
And at least these have input gain AND output trim knobs. Slate's VCC desperately needs an output trim knob.
