In Audacity, select your track, then choose Effect, Normalize. This will bring up the volume without adding any artifacts. I have to do this with all my tracks.
Got the sound worked out, now I have to get the part worked out!

I'll give that a shot too Steve, thanks! :D

cool steve, will try that next time I record.
Well, I think I've got my part as good as I'm going to get it.
Once I get Steve's part I'll mix it together & send it to everyone for approval.

Normalizing brings the highest peaks to 0dB. When you have tracks that are clipping, this can actually bring the overall volume down.
Compression or LIGHT limiting should not introduce any artifacts. Keep the ratio down (2:1 or 4:1 at most.) and the release time mid way (250ms or so) and you should'nt have a lot of problems with pumping. When you look at the meters you should only see the compressor engage, occasionally.
Now if you are using Audacity, this will be difficult to implement since Audacity does not allow for real time application of effects.
What's going on with this jam, by the way? I forgot all about it till Hue bumped it.

Well, Steve & I also just posted yesterday... :roll: :wink:
Waiting for Steve to resend me his part with the click track included, then I'll mix everything together & send it out for approval. Hoping to get it done by the end of this coming weekend at the latest. :)

Thanks for having me. This was fun. It was a bit harder than the few other jams I've done. I think that's because of the length and the tempo. A nice challenge and it sound great guys.
