| Never let digital zero be the limiter. Never never. If you want compression..do so with the compression or limiters..not using digital limits as the limiter. I can do a very loud file peaking at -5dB ... |

What are you considering to be a "normal CD"?
My feeling is that you are comparing to a CD that is way too loud to begin with. It is a piano..not a 90 piece orchestra or 4 double stack Marshalls.
