Salvatore Sorice Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Not sure if there is a setting I'm missing but if I Browse and Audition any Shots/Loops in Bandlab Sounds they are incredibly loud. Sonar (latest build). Looks like the Sounds are routed to my Hardware Outs and there is no way to change it. To not blow my ears off I have to turn my Hardware Outs waaay down - but then everything else is too low in volume. Is there a way to route the Sounds to a "Preview" Bus so I can adjust the volume? Do I have something set wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaps Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) You can select the Audio Preview Bus in the top menu Project>Set Audio Preview Bus. Check your Bus Pane to see if the Preview Bus is showing and if it is receiving audio. Edited 9 hours ago by Chaps Grammar Correction 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvatore Sorice Posted 9 hours ago Author Share Posted 9 hours ago Thanks @Chaps - I'll give that a try when I'm back at my PC later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mettelus Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Another note, it is good practice to put a limiter on your output buss(es) to protect both your ears and hardware. I leave that engaged even when mixing (set high with a steep slope), but disable it for mixdowns/exports. I have seen a couple VSTis glitch over the years that output ~90 dB in the red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amberwolf Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Ah, yes, that old "I'm sure my speakers had cones a minute ago" feeling... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvatore Sorice Posted 3 hours ago Author Share Posted 3 hours ago OK, I got it... I usually delete the "Preview" and "Metronome" Buses from my Projects and Templates. I added a new "Preview" Bus and all is well. @mettelus - thanks for the heads-up. I already have LoudMax on my Master Bus, set to -1.0db, just in case... :^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't route it straight to your mains with having a limiter on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
