Thanks everyone for the help. I did some recording yesterday and indeed the fader is not affecting the recorded volume, so learned something I probably should have figured out already 🤪

If the headphones are too loud turn down the headphone volume on the 2i2.

It's not the over all volume, it me live vs the track I'm playing to.

Really, I always thought the level I was seeing on the meter was the one I was recording. But if I'm using a guitar plugin the level to the plugin makes a big difference in gain and the resulting sound of the amp.

When I'm recording a rhythm guitar part it's distracting to hear it really loud in my headphones  but I don't want to turn down the input volume that I'm recording. I'm sure there's something simple I'm missing here.

Appreciate the listen and comments @mark skinner, @Marshall, @steve@baselines.co, @Bajan Blue and @AndyB01

Really awesome guitar playing! 

When I first started writing songs they almost all had vocals and every one of them was a struggle to write. I have a ton of melody ideas but finding words is like pulling teeth and I don't really like most of the ones I came up with so instrumental writing is my path of least resistance but I do admire people that can do it.

Cool song, sounds very late sixties early seventies.  Like the spacey sounds and the guitar solo.

Thanks for the listen and comments FreeEarCandy!

Wow that's kind of a crazy piece! Great guitar playing for sure. It sounds like the levels of everything are so high that it is distorting is that an effect you were going for ?

My latest, featuring my Antigua Tenor sax and Yamaha NCX1 guitar, Ezdrummer 3 and ZZC PJ bass

You write one heck of a catchy tune Keith! I always enjoy your stuff.  The backing vocals are so good.

Really cool song, very different. Like the sound of the drums and the arrangement.  It's cool that it doesn't sound like anybody else, which is always hard to do.

Cool track for sure, you do the busy guitars really well. Like the synth in there too.

Crazy shredding. Pretty funny video.

Wow, that's really good! Horns are great. 

Another good one. Like those backing vocals.

Nice, some classic rock!

Good song Freddy, I'm not crazy about the keyboard stabs either, the synth sounds a bit out of place with the retro sound of the track. Maybe some out of key guitar licks would fit better. 

Very nice! Love my classical guitar.

Catchy song I like it. I lost my friend that I did a lot of recording with, it is nice to have his guitar playing still there, although makes me sad too. 

Nice, I like the way the chorus builds. Very catchy.

Good job on this style of music. Agree the female vocal is way low in the beginning.

Cool song! Some great guitar work on there. 

Appreciate it noynekker!
