I've been playing with vinyl recordings for a while and getting what I would consider excellent results. So far have used PC each time and always take the time to set the input record volume levels. I had never tried on a Mac and simply out of curiosity I tried it but can't seem to get the input record volume to change regardless of how high or low I slide the setting to. I recorded a few tracks anyhow and the results were still what I would call excellent. How could this be? I'm thinking in the old days with cassettes I would stay away from auto level decks for obvious reasons. I would suspect preset or auto levels on a computer would be terrible as well? Yes I normalized afterward to -1.0.
So my question is what's going on here? Is there a way to manually set the record levels on a Mac? If not, and Mac does use preset unchangeable levels, why I am I getting very good results? Am I missing something simple?
Would really appreciate some input.
Thank you!
