D3200 Mastering

Post by Marcus Soleyn »

When I record the master track on my D3200, why is the volume on my master track lower than the volume from the individual tracks? I need some help on this. Thanks

I don't have a D3200 but it could be the "Master Volume" slide is set too low.

Thanks DaniH but I put it up as high as I could without it peaking so I think the problem may be something else. If you have any other ideas please let me know. I appreciate it.

Are you recording to your computer or straight on the D3200 only?? If you are recording onto your computer it could the input level from the sound card.

I am recording directly into the D3200. I think if I use compression as one of the final effects it may help. Give me your feedback. Thanks

I would try that. Also here is a website I found that may or may not help.

Master level low

Same situation. I record my tracks with a great deal of gain but when I burn my master I get about a fourth as much on the meters with the MV slider all the way up.
