Ok then, how would I be able to do this then? Because there is a "Dynamic Processor" effect on my computer that acts like an external compressor (but actually isn't) that puts everything at the same level. Although since it isnt a hardware compressor, you cant tweak it, so it sounds pretty bad...
Oh ok... Well I definetely learned something then. I always thought every track had to be near "0". But really the whole mix should hit around "0", correct?

And, I should set my mixer to output at -6dB? But won't that be too low?
And how would I set my mixer to not read more than 6 dB?
I meant for example, When I record it on my computer, I want the volume to all be at "0". Because I thought that compressor/limiters always output the whole recording at "0". Because I dont want to be having to "Normalize" it to 99%, you know what I mean?
As for when I'm recording with the...
Thanks for the quick reply...
When you say how am I hooking it up, what exactly do you mean? The outputs on my mixer are going into the compressor/limiter's inputs, and then from the compressor's outputs, to my soundcard's inputs.
Well I tried what you said, and I still have clipping. Now when...
