I have yet to use the console, I use the vol slider on each track. But will try it today. I have a graphic equalizer between the computer and amp which really adds to the sound, but my brother has said I need to bypass it when finalizing a song. Another problem I have is most of my songs have similar vol levels, but a couple will be lower enough to need turning up the vol for playback. Instead of relying on ear, I guess I should rely on vol meter? Dam thing moves too fast for me. Will try to solve these problems using console. If I spent as much time practicing guitar as I do trying to figure out all these programs, well anyway I don't think practice is going to help my guitar playing, bad ADD.
Also after the comment from "theguitarplayer", it made me realize most of the time I don't even consider a songs ending. Most I pick a spot and just fade out the vol, some sound like the power went out, or the whole band had a heart attack. Will have to work on this. Thanks for the comments.
