Hi all,

I have a Media Composer Adrenaline V2.7.7 and I am importing Audio CD's in to the system. That all works, but they are constantly about 6dB too high in level. I have had this same issue for years on all versions of software, and have always just brought down the audio level, but I thought that there must be a better way to do it. Does anyone have an answer on the best way to import CD's with the level being correct?

Hi,

There's no better way, you just have to bring the levels down after import.

good luck,
Carl

The thing is that for broadcast and film, digital audio has way more headroom than is used in commercial music releases. The latter tend to be heavily maximized and normalized.
