Recording Level Gain Staging - Mic/Preamp/Compressor/Interface/DAW

Watch as Weezna shows how to get a clean and loud signal from the mic..preamp..compressor..interface..DAW. This same gain staging can be used when not using a compressor or a separate mic preamp. A great level of input signal into your DAW should still be between -7db and -5db. ALWAYS AVOID DIGITAL CLIPPING!
