So to paraphrase my question - is anyone aware of any specific reason my Motif XS6 via SPDIF to the RME and into Logic is coming in at such a low level?
It is a digital signal so it can't be related to the quality of the COAX cable ... I wonder if this is a Yamaha Motif question. It isn't distorted - just low.

I have used SPDIF and TOSLINK optical cables and even a cheap $30
spdif/toslink converter, and the signal levels are always fine.
There are probably some sites on the internet with shootouts between
different a/d converters, but I suspect that anything costing a few hundred bucks or
more will be fine (in other words anything but the cheapest ones). I am sure
there are differences, but I think they are pretty subtle and hard to hear the
differences. There are many other ways to get warmer sound - from the preamps
and compressors to any number of plugins. The job of converters is accuracy not
warmth or character.
