Waveforms get smaller when you record in Traktor?
Waveforms get smaller when you record in Traktor? Posted on: 06.01.2014 by Ilda Naude I just noticed that when recording anything in traktor (whether I use my internal ddj-t1 soundcard or switch to my traktor audio 6) the waveform becomes much smaller and the audio volume seems to drop.Is this normal and has anyone else noticed this? | |

| Lannie Kutay 07.01.2014 | i use this tutorial. I made a template in ableton to import my mixes into and this gives it a pretty good master every time. http://abletonlife.com/how-to-master...n-ableton-live |
| Nikole Resende 08.01.2014 | Just don't have anybody "fatten it up". Simply load it into any kind of audio editor (free ones like audacity are totally fine), normalize, export - done. |
| Pam Stolley 08.01.2014 | any tips on boosting the volume? i've noticed this with some of my recordings too. had a buddy fatten one up with cubase but the highs came out too loud. that recording was done from cdjs directly into cubase. but i've noticed the quieter volume with traktor recordings. |

| Latoria Kavulich 06.01.2014 | Totally normal. A recording level of -15 to -12db is about right. Easier to boost up the volume later than re-record because you've run too hot eh. |
| Antonetta Wikel 06.01.2014 | Your gain staging must be wrong. |
| Hellen Mindrup 06.01.2014 | u shud throw it into ableton n compress it m8, make it phat |
