I recorded a mix via Wavelab the other day.... I adjusted the Recording control input in Windows until the levels in Wavelab were perfectly in the yellow, just out of the green.. and I kept checking during the mix and they were constant, with no clipping.

Yet the output is shite. As you can see in the below attched pic... the sound clips badly at 50.. the wave file is cut off at those levels causing heavy distortion.

Anybody know what to try to fix this for future mixes?

was gonna say check the variation between what your mixer shows as 'yellow' (though aint this anything above '0', ie clipping?) and what the comp records at?
i use soundforge for recording, so it looks a bit different.

try and do a test run for a few mins to calibrate the mixer output to the computer recording??

Are you recording straght from your mixer to your soundcard? Or do you have something like an edirol/imic device?

you probably didnt do this but make sure u use linein not mic. on your soundcard as mic has high noise & records really loud

Is there is a signal boost on Wavelab, conversely, no one has played with your signal settings for your line in?
