Audio Software levels vs Other Computer Levels

Hwardak · 15th February 2009

Hi everyone,

I am sort of newb to the recording domain. I have noticed, as long has I have had my recording gear, that the levels of everything else in computer, such as internet media(youtube) and every other sound related to non audio software is louder than audio apps(reason, cubase, and kontakt) And the meters on audio apps show decent volume. I run my projects through Profire 610 at 256buffer samples and 44.1 sample rate. Any advice?

My advice: don't worry about it. Keep the volume knob nearby.
