Given that this problem is so common, you'd think the equipment
designers would help us out a bit by providing SWITCHABLE INPUT LEVELS.
It stinks that I have to buy another $70 and add yet another hunk of
electronics to my rig when it would be very easy for them to simply
provide a switch so that it could be used in a very common user
configuration.
