Question

I recorded my guitar picking song, saved it as an MP3 file on my desktop and emailed to a friend. When I click on the MP3 file that I emailed, I can barely hear it even with all of the computer volume settings at maximum. Did I record it with a setting wrong, and if so, which one?

Answer 1

It would depend on whe the main fader looks like during playback in S1. Are you track levels in the mixer around -12-6db with the main around 0 to -3db. Without any other info I would say to add a Maximizer, or Limiter and increase the volume on the main channel and after increasing the volume a lot export again just to see if it's a mixing levels issue or not. FYI I've never had this problem with MP3s from S1, so unfortuneately that's really the only idea I have.
