well most things are already set to max, just say im on discord my mic level is set to 100% "all noise suppression etc off"
maybe time for a new mic lol
I don't think you're getting what I'm saying.
The signal you need for recording has nothing to do with how loud you hear things on the monitors or in your headphones for the mix.
You said that no one can hear you.
I'm sure the microphone and interface arte providing more than enough *recording* level.
If you can't hear that track as loud as the other tracks with your monitors...then it's very possible you are cranking the other tracks way to hot.
If the mix balance is good, but you can't heart your vocals loud enough in the headphone when recording more tracks...that's an issue with your headphone cue mix, and again, you most likely have to adjust the output of the other tracks so the balance is good with the vocals, and then raise the overall output of your headphones.
You appear to be trying to control mix balance in the monitors or the headphones by increasing the gain at the front end for the mic and interface
That's NOT how you do it....but don't feel bad, most people these days seem to have a problem with the whole recording gain/level, mix balance, monitor level and/or headphone mix level thing. Seems like everyone thinks you fix the final mix/monitor levels by simply increasing the front end record levels....but no, that's not it.
