  1. Hello, The Logic Pro Help staff and community has helped me immensely to finish some songs I recorded, so I wanted to share the video and music. Thank you David Nahmani - your helpful advice to myself and others always seems to get to the point clearly and concisely - very much appreciated. A Very Long Walk was recorded, mixed, and mastered exclusively using Logic Pro X. Except for one compressor and a limiter used in mastering, all other plug-ins are the standard ones that come with Logic Pro X. What worked best to my ear was meticulous gain staging and vocal track comping, so that's the bulk of the processing that you'll be hearing. Here's the Youtube link - I hope you'll check it out:
  2. Big thank you! Yes, I had Normalize set to "On." My problem is fixed now - that was really throwing me off in the mastering phase.
  3. Hello, 1st post here - I've been a lurker, and this site has helped me tremendously, but I have a new puzzling problem that I need help with and I'm unable to find a similar prior post on this topic. I've bounced a project's final mix into a stereo file with Logic Pro's Multimeter showing a Peak Level of -7.2, a RMS level of -21.2, and a LUFS level of 23.3. The multimeter plugin is located in the final space of the Output track, so I think it should be reading the final output levels, especially considering that both the Output track and Master track faders are set a zero (0) and there are no other activated plugins on the Output track. I next imported the final mix bounced file into a new project created for mastering purposes, leaving both the Output track and Master track faders also at zero (0), and no other plug-ins activated. When I play the mix track and only have the Multimeter active on the Output track, the levels then change to Peak = -0.2, a RMS level of -14.2 , and LUFS -16.2. I think the levels should have stayed the same since I cannot see any faders or plug-ins that would have changed the levels, however the levels appear to have changed from the final mix to the initial mastering with nothing more than a bounced audio file being imported into a new mastering project. I have the same experience with the final mixed bounced files to both m4a and .wav formats, so I don't think this is a file format issue. How did that happen, and what changes do I need to make so that the levels remain the same? Thanks. Bob B.
