Play (or perform) the sounds
that you actually intend to

If the recording level is too low, you won’t be able to record very soft sounds. If the
recording level is too high, loud sounds will be distorted, causing crackles in the
recorded sound.
* If the material you are recording occasionally contains sudden loud sounds, such as the
attack of a drum in a band performance or sudden laughter during a quiet conversation, we
recommend that you use the Limiter (06 Limiter, p. 54). When doing so, adjust the input
level appropriately for the principal type of sound you are recording—not for the sudden
loud sounds that sometimes occur.
When you use the Limiter, the input level is automatically adjusted so that the audio input
level doesn’t get excessively high. When using the Limiter, you should adjust the input level
so that the
