Volume in db MatrixMixer

Hey guys,

I have set up my MatrixMixer and everything is working smoothly. But am I right that setting a volume on the matrix mixer of 1 equals to 0db?

with the sample code of the MatrixMixerTest

double ampdb(double amp) { return 20. * log10(amp); }

if amp = 1, you get about 0 db. Okay, I'm fine with that, but I am confused why programs like logic or MainStage can get up to +6db which would mean in this calculation amp =  2, but I can't give the mixer a 2 as volume. How is it done in these apps? is there a extra Audio Unit boosting the signal if needed?

I also don't know how to do the slider the right way. The slider has linear numbers, but I want on my slider the 0 db mark in the upper third like a real slider. If I set the maxValue to 2 on the slider, the 0 db mark is right in the middle. Ideas to solve this?

Thanks
Benjamin
