Thanks a lot. I did however get my master buss to come down to the right db
because I used the sonodis multi band compressor on the master buss. I don't
know if that's how it suppose to work but it worked for me haha. And now the
track sounds how I want it.
Kind regards

Len, yes there will be clipping.
If you have several tracks recorded, and there all just below 0 db and you
send them to a master buss, it's like too menny folks trying to get through
a door at the same time.
So by lowing the db level for each track is like taking some weight off the
folks, making them skinnyer.
Now they have a better chance of getting throu the door.
For me, I try to keep the loudest track of my projecst
somewhere around minus 2 or 3 db.
This gives you some head room to work with.
Then adjust the other tracks around the loudest track to obtain a mix that
satisfys you.
So if you don't use the Master bus for any thing else, it's usually a good
idea to have one set up to monnor the over all peak level.
If you have a good mix and you have db level over 0 in
the master buss,
Lower the volume level for each track the same amount.
By the way, there's no such thing as a silly question.
Cheers!
Mark
