First of all, thanks for all the help on here. It has helped a great deal.
I have enough songs to make a demo and start dropping it around town for gigs.
But much to my surprise my levels on a CD suck.
If I have the levels set on the various tracks to the stereo master level only goes from green to orange here and there and never makes the red marks come on at the top, then the actual level of the wav I export to are way too low.
I can crank the stereo and it sounds fine. But on my Sony walkman CD player I can barely hear it at ful volume, where commercial CDs are never played at full volume.
How do I get this songs to be loud enough without distorting by cranking all the levels??
PS I use Cakewalk 9
