So should we deprecate the volume control, rename it to "gain" and alias "volume" to it for backwards compatibility?
Your bug title suggests we should remove master gain -- sure people should ideally not reduce the fidelity of their music before it gets converted to analog (unless it's clipping) but the live broadcasting and recording crowd at least need a handy gain knob. And many DJs will want it for the convenience even though it is less ideal than doing it with the club mixer.
