Plug your headphones into the mixer and listen to the mix with the bass turned up to a reasonable level.
Do you hear any distortion (crackle)?
How high is the level on the Behringer 900 meters?

the noise sample that I recorded was at 50% volume.... [snip] The voice sample is at 60% So shouldn't the noise be louder in the voice sample, since it is recorded at a higher (60%) level than the noise sample (50%)?. Microphone recordings are never completely free of background noise. I don't have...

Run this first on the (music) track that you want to follow: (Memory usage will go quite high for this pass, but I think you should b...
