Message: [QUOTE="Pez, post: 22637, member: 49212"] A lot depends on if you're doing analog or digital recording. I like to run tape a bit into the red but for digital you generally want to keep away from it. Some digital software that has 32 bit float processing can handle the individual tracks being a bit hot as long as the mix bus is below zero. Some folks recommend recording around -6 so that you have some headroom for eqs and processors. A lot also depends on your AD converters. Some cheaper converters seem to sound a bit better with a hotter signal. [/QUOTE]
