If you are still here I would like to clarify some concepts about the right level we have to work with in a DAW.
In the thread that we have had in the past autumn on PSW you wrote:

"Imagine for instance a loudish instrument with rich HF percussive harmonic content that for one reason or another only just reached peak values at the outp[/font]ut of your ADC in record. You then EQ it a bit (perhaps rolling off the HF a bit) changing the relative phases of the freqs in the spectrum, noticing that the peak sample value level has dropped a dB or so, you increase the gain to max once more. The drop in peak sample value resulting from a slight re-arrangement of the phase of the freqs - may still have resulted in an almost flat out signal when reconstructed - before you added the gain - now it could overload even though no red light is on."

Because most of samples libraries available are all normalized at full level, in this case I use to insert the trim plugin in the first slot before any process set to -6dB. Does this trip work properly in order to avoid illegal peaks (obviolusly without hi gain in eq etc)?

Thank you
