This is happening because some of your tracks that are feeding your master are
too high. Always keep in mind that peak levels are cumulative. When you start
stacking up a lot of tracks, even though individually their levels might be all
right, together they will mount up. Many times I find myself going through all
my audio tracks and just dropping each one down by around 5 db or so. The name
of the game when mixing is head room, it will go a long way toward giving your
mixes the space they need.

Subject: [ddots-l] Mixing down audio
Hi:
I need to mix down audio that is going to the master buss, the master bus is
set at a output level of -6.0 Db. When I mix the audio down, the audio level
comes out at -0.2 Db. Why is this? Can somebody tell me how to mix the audio
down keeping the output level the same.
I am using sonar 4 producer.
Cheers
Sean.
