I think I've asked this before, but for some reason it's not sinking in. Could be the sleep deprivation!
But, say my individual track faders are all real low like -15db in the mix session. When I say low I mean physically, like the fader is pulled way down. I have no idea how they wound up there....I think when I brought in fake drums the instrument tracks sounded loud relative to that, but I'm not sure. The bottom line is they're all that low (physically on the board). So say on the master fader I then bump the final output +15db of gain to make up for that. Does that degrade quality compared to having the faders up from the get go?
Thanks, and sorry if this is a repeat question.
