Geoff sure knows his stuff that's all I can say.

You just have to mean Jeff. ;-)
 
For just a 1/2 a second I was really flattered.

Haha. Sorry for the misdirected flattery. But I did mean Jeff Evans. In any case just ignore this post and take the comment for yourself.

Thanks, Mudgel!! I'll take what I can get. :-)
 
You know, I think I know one of my problems with the system. For me, I get so much bleed between Mics I sometimes have too much of one thing and not enough of another because of the bleed.
 
For example, one this tune...

The female singer with the tambourine is a problem. The tambourine is going into her mic and into the waist high mic for the guitar next to her. So, I'm getting too much tambourine. If I turn down her vocal to be level with the others (almost 5 dB in this case), then her Vocal part will be too quiet.

Blue Cat's DP Meter Pro would be a good prescription for this type of issue. The product has everything you need for viewing and measuring RMS values. It provides the ability to adjust the RMS time period as well. 
Of course it has the standard VU, Peak, and Crest meters, K-System settings, etc.. - and it can output many of its measurements as automation data.
 
Er, uh, and you can get it from the Cakewalk store...
