Remove clipping from Right stereo channel

CDK
Hi all,
 
I'm sure I'm missing something really basic here but anyway... is there a way to remove clipping/reduce the gain from a certain section on the Right audio channel only?
 
I've programmed a track using all softsynths but now looking at the exported audio there are a couple of sections with minor clipping. Can I reduce this from the wav file I've exported? Or do I have to go back into my original project and reduce volumes there?
 
Many thanks :)

Hi. If you have the file without clipping but uneven levels, you could split it to dual mono, and process individually per track.
All the best.

A clipped file is an absolute absurdety.
Reduce the volumen in your project and / or use a limiter in the total mix.

Thanks... would I use a limiter in the original (multitrack) project? Or on the exported audio?

use a limiter before export (unless your going to master it).
where is this going  ? are you going to master it ? or is your export a final mix ?
 
even a little clipping/in the red on one side isn't a death sentence because it isn't clipping per say.
there is a huge difference between clipping the meter and clipping the signal.
 
it just depends on what the next stages are after export.
if your just going to upload it to soundcloud, or pass it around, your fine.
if your going to master it, re mix it and don't go anything higher than -3db.
The dynamic raw mix should be sitting (within 4-6 dB) before mastering.
 
what ever you do, don't use a limiter on the master bus if your going to master it, leave that to the mastering engineer.
your just going to ruin your dynamics with a limiter before mastering.

Looks like you did not read my post so I'll say it again. 
I gave a few options but in the case of backing tracks which is what I do a lot of;  I put the LP 64 multiband on the master buss. It will give you a more even max volume without clipping.  
 
I still open all my wave stereo masters in a wave editor ( Wave Lab)  so I can check peak RMS value. This is important if you want all your tracks to playback at the same level. You can do this is Sonar too, but for me a wave editor does the job faster and with little fuss. It's what a wave editor is for. 
Peak level is not the same as RMS average level. One little peak will make your track over and leave the rest too quiet. So a multi band compressor will help you get closer to an average level. It will tame peaks and level the average volume. Notice I keep using the word average..this is what counts as this is how we precieve the volume of a song. 
 
Now we need to analyze the song to see what it's average RMS level is. I make all my backing tracks -14 average RMS level. Note, the peak level will probably be 0db. 
If a song comes out of Sonar at average level of say -17 average RMS and a peak level of 0db you will have a song that sopunds quieter than the others. To fix this I have to apply a loudness maximizer of + 3db to squish it up to -14db. There's no audible damage done. 
 
Please don't even think of using CD's for backing tracks....play wave files from your PC.  Any old laptop will do just fine. 
Here's my system.
