Finally, does anyone else think -40dB for the Master, and 0dB for all other controls is too loud for the default or not?
On my system, anything other than minimum gain and muted across the board is too loud. There has to be a clear distinction between pro/semi-pro vs. consumer hardware. If a desktop computer doesn't give sound by default it's inconvenient. If a recording engineer blows up a 20000 euro pair of speakers because he expected things to start muted, it's more than inconvenient.
