Also how well is your machine calibrated? What is your reference level? How much overbias are you using for the 468? How hard are you hitting the tape according to your VU meters? (You must know your reference level so that when your meters read 0vu you know exactly how hard you're hitting the tape.)
First ,thx to all for your comments .

The style of music i'm recording is House, Electro ,Trance....
The machine is been calibrated for the emtec SM 468 tapes .
In the recording test ive done i was using a Powercore 6000 Brickwall Limiter set at -0.1 dB and on playback it gives me the same level.

From te manual the input level is +6 dBm ( 1.55 v ) standard and the maximum input level is +30 dBm !

So now i'm gonna do a few more test without BWL .

P.L.U.R
