Hey everyone,
Just want a bit of advice. I'm currently finishing off my first Ableton Mix, coming to the final stages but noticed something funny. If you have a look at the following png:
The levels are on the right hand side obviously, I've got my two tracks playing with each other, nicely leveled and clipping just into the orange but on the master below its pushing it over and well into the red.
Now this sounds fine in the ears but I'm concerned when listening on other sources. Obviously it will only take a bit of tweaking if necessary but I'd rather get it right first time round.
1stly: Why does two levels clipping nicely combined push Ableton into the red?
2ndly: The compressor isn't on (ignore the pic) but if I compress the master track it takes a -15db threshold to push it back down into the green/orange....
Any help welcomed.
Thanks
