Well - i don´t think reducing the gain can in any way improve the detection in RS. It´s a bit away the other way around.... as active pickups have a higher output and there are also differences from HB to SC and P90s, and also from brand to brand i had the problem that when CALIBRATING THE VOLUME IN RS (you get the option at the tuning screen) with an active pickup, then when i used one of my guitars with passives i got the message that my guitars volume was very low .... so i calibrated with that one then - and ever since use that calibration with all guitars and vol and tone always at max. IF you are used to reduce the gain then go to the lowest you are used to and do a CALIBRATION WITH THAT SETTING.
For myself volume and toneknobs are useless except for muting - the next guitar i am gonna build is gonna be completely pot-less, only a pickup-switch with the middle position is gonna be both pickus OFF. Pure unreduced outputs from the pickups and less less electronics (doesn´t matter cause that is like 2% of the building process and also fun, but hey) - i really wonder that guitar brands always use volume and toneknobs - any pot (and the ones used in guitars are quite the same used 70years ago) takes a way some output.... If i could just send someone to work instead of myself .... i´d start right monday morning and start to create a lovely 7-stringer .... that BM boybands have their A Std and alike tunings and i am not a fan of pitch shifting as i am not a fan of playing with headphones... sorry for the excourse .... i should really get back to Lordi now
