You want to find the highest peaks in your music selections and back off 
your recording level accordingly so that your music selection doesn't sound 
distorted. Every song will be different, and even the quality of the audio 
tape or vinyl record will make a difference.

Subject: nedding some assistance from some audio files out hear


 Hi okay I know that my question isn't for pc audio but I am wondering if I
 still can get some suggestions hear anyway.  What I am trying to do it 
 this.
 I have a sony tape deck hooked up to my stereo and a mixer with my cd
 players running to it and my turn table running to it as well.  Now when I
 would like to record something off of cd I would like tohave the best
 sounding recording with out going over or being two quiet.  Now I know 
 that
 sound a little far fetched because cd's are at different volumes and 
 things
 like that and it depends on how you set your record level onyour tape deck
 and here is where my problem is.  I have ben messing around with my tape
 deck volume for days not trying to get it to where I would be happwith it.
 Now since we all have different opinions what sounds good and how we like
 things what would be the best setting to use for doing this.  I mean my 
 tape
 deck level goes from 0 to ten and right now I have it on 6 so should I put
 the deck on level 5 or four or just leave it at six and record stuff like
 that?  I have the mixer set where I want it and adjusted how I want it 
 also.
 I am totally blind and can't see the record levels meters on my tape deck 
 so
 that is out for me.  So I would like to get the best level that I can for
 most of the stuff that I am planning to record.  I believe that I am using 
 a
 sony tape deck model c-we 475 be think that is how that model number is
 written anyway.  I am happy with the deck but I would just like to get 
 this
 record level straightened away and then I will be in business.  So let see
 what am I recording on to tapes from cd will a lot of rock music and some
 power metal also.  So that may help in any opinions that I get on this
 recording that I would like to do.  I am planning to record on my home
 stereo to tape using this tape deck so if anyone out hear can understand 
 all
 of this and give me some ideas to try that would be a big help.  And 
 thanks
 for any suggestions that may come my way on this on the list.

 Casey
