Octatrack's output -10 or +4?

Elektron Gear Octatrack
#1

Hi all

Can anyone tell me if the outputs on Octatrack is -10 or +4?

I heard somewhere that balanced outputs (which I think OT’s main outputs are – maybe also the Cue outputs) always are +4 and unbalanced are -10. But maybe someone with better knowledge could teach me?

Thanks.
