Doug,

(Another controversial answer) I approach recording levels to PT the same whether I'm recording for a console mix, or an in the box mix. Since I started out with tape based recording, and I previously recorded my levels to tape (2" or 48 trk digital) as hot as I could without distortion, I simply applied the same approach when I switched to PT about seven years ago. To me this method seems to make sense. When mixing in the box with these levels I've been very happy with my results, so I've seen no reason to change. The same levels have worked fine with console mixes.
