The problem I am faced with is that I will have a song finished, mixed down to where I am happy with the quality. I then put the CD in my car cd player, and the overall volume is lower than any other CD I have .
The question I am asking is: Can anyone give me tips on boosting the overall volume? And if the raw recording is not clipping, can i boost the volume as much as i want and it wont clip? Or do i have to keep everything under 0 db reguardless.... Basically what im asking is , what do you guys do to get your project to the highest acceptable level?
I Appologize for my post being all over the place... being that im not the most experienced engineer, i dont know the technical terms and all of that, and I hope you are able to answer my Question, or at least point me in the right direction.( Yes i know the obvious answer is to use a limiter, im just curious about alturnitives.)
