The gain and level controls in any DAW do not control recording levels.  Your audio interface controls level. The faders are for mixing after you have tracks recorded. The gain controls are best left at unity unless the tracks were badly recorded and need help. 

i  take it all vst plugins don't have to be adjusted whilst recording.voice,real bass or guitar hardware stuff have to be set at -10 db----18db as they are recorded into daw?

me audio interface is presonus  so are you saying whilst recording.voice,real bass or guitar hardware stuff i adjust presonus to reach -10 db----18db as they are recorded into daw?thanks john.jack c.

so how do ya configure your chain buss with dynamics(comp,eq etc)and buss  verbs.buss delay).also ya use 1st. buss for dynamics,2nd buss for verb and 3 buss for delay or do ya insert delay in verb buss.thanks on advance.jack  c.

so for this would ya use the daws fader to move down so level for each track is -10 to record?or leave faders at unity gain and use gain knob to achieve this?thanks.jack c.

bring up bass some.nice recording job.jack c.

great job recording .the stuff sounds real.jack c.

Good idea for a topic.

I'm always evolving.

Right now my go to stuff is

Pro channels on most tracks with the EQ very minor tweaks like Lo pass. Also the PC76 Compressor 

Guitar Acoustic and electric I always use TH3 with at least the stomp box compressor and sometimes the Chorus or Flanger. 

For global reverb I use Acon Digital Verberate Basic 2 

For delay I use something different every time but most used is the Sonitus Delay

On my master bus my chain right now is-LP 64 Multiband- BT Brickwall- Span and Youlean meters. 

I sometimes use BBE Sonic maximizer on live recordings of drums. 

 

I missed the question about your looking for vocals,

My secrete weapon is this

Find the right mike for your voice. Don't just go by what others are using and popularity. It took 20 years but I have settled on a plain old Shure Beta 58 with a good pop filter. I also use a Joe Meek 3Q pre amp so I can avoid using my interface pre's.  This set up nets me a solid vocal track that sounds the way I want it to song after song. 

So in the end I don't really need to process my vocals other than the very light touch of the PC 76 and then the standard bits of reverb and delay. 

In other word don't just record thinking you can fix this later. Only record thinking this is it, this is a good sounding track without processing.
