I have a synidcated radio show that i just started recording live. We have 4 mics and a DJ setup. We record live 6 tracks into PT and then mixdown. I have been having problems setting up my levels with the DJ setup. Alot of the songs are at different levels so it is difficult to get the right levels into PT.

I am thinking about adding a limiter between the DJ setup and PT. would this help? are there any cheap limiters that are transparent? I would not want the limiter adding any character to the songs....

Could i go the cheap route and use a VSTi or Software Limiter without latency? I have another computer with VST stack on it. Could I use this as a limiter??
