Tascam MSR16: Listening and Monitoring is Hot But Printing Very Low and Noisey

All the replay sounds fine and everything, I've cleaned the tape heads, and I record hot into the tape, monitoring it completely fine through my mixer, but when it records it's incrediblyyyy quiet and noisey. Is this a problem with my tape or mixer or tape machine?
 
You say you record hot. Is this reflected in the deck’s meters?? Not the mixer

On playback, are the machine’s meter readings the same?
 
So on playback, the deck’s meters are approximately the same as when you recorded?

What you using for a mixer?
 
Good questions from @RFR. Also, when is the last time you did a full calibration on the machine? What tape are you using and did you set the bias for that tape?
