You should note that the microphone preamps are a big deal. That’s why you always see mixers advertised: Now! With Doobly-Doo Preamps!!

I wonder if your separate recorder automatically leveled out your extreme sounds, so the show was one third finished before it ever left the recorder. A presentation like that would sail straight through post production processing. You might be a client for RMS Normalize. That one ignores peaks in f...

It's good to know that Normalize, Amplify and a selection of other tools work on wave peaks, not loudness or other measurement.
