I have a small home studio setup and I seem to be running into the same problem with every song I record. No matter what I do, I can never get the level of the vocal tracks to be high enough. I have tried compressors and re-recording the tracks with a higher input volume, but I always get distortion before I get the volume I need. So here's the questions...do I just need to lower the volume of my other tracks? Am I totally using the compressor wrong? Are there other mastering techniques I should use?
Any help would be appreciated...
