I've problems with my Low End...hehe

Hello!

When recording bass, either bassguitar, or upright bass, or kick drum I can't seem to get a real punch. I use an AKG D112 either at a distance or upclose to the source and it still does not make much of a difference. Often I need to cut a couple clicks off a freq around 120hz to 100 range, and it clears it up a little, but then I loose a lot of the sound.

PreSonus M-80 meters misread low frequencies

Just a note of caution to all M-80 owners, the meters on my M-80 do not read correctly for frequencies below 200 hz. I have noticed this on two other M-80's in our area and I am wondering if they all do this? To test you take a test tone oscillator and feed the M-80 a 1 khz tone at 1 volt, adjust the gain to read 0 db on the M-80.

mixing with Sonar low volume

when i get done mixing something with Sonar 3.. the levels look good, the sound wave levels dont look too loud or soft.. they are about 75-80% at their peeks. but when i mix it all down to a wav, the sound is much too low. how do i fix this. and can i increase the volume on each track by Xdb without it distorting? should i mix with them at their loudest level or what?
