Last night I was working on a mix that I've had some problems with getting the drums to lay in right, and I decided to double up the drums on both a group buss and on the stereo/master buss. I had to crank the overall volume level up a bit higher than I normally do to get the mix right but it finally got there. So, I then run it into my PC 2-track program to record the mix (out of the control room output of the board). Lo and behold I get a waveform that looks like it has gone through a hard limiter (and sounded like crap to boot).
Has anyone else ever seen this with a Mackie 8-buss?
I dropped the level of the master fader by about half and got my dynamics back in the waveform, but this got me to wondering about the stereo buss in the mixer.
Anyway, any experienced comments would be welcome.
Thanks,
