[ddots-l] Re: ideal peak levels help

Hi 
On the same subject, is there a general rule of thumb as to the balance between 
vocals (individual voice) and background music/instruments?

  No track's level should transcend -0.1. After knowing that, it pretty much 
depends on how you want your stuff mixed, and how you want each track to sound 
in conjunction with the other tracks.

    Hello group, about peak levels.
    Pressing the f2 key shows the peak level.
    Normally, what would be the ideal peek level for a track?
    I realize there would be a different peak level for each track in a song.
    What peak level would be considered too high?
    Also, lets say you have 4 tracks drums, bass guitar and piano.
    A rough peak level for each track 
    would be what?

    Thanks in advance.
