Very low system recording levels

After recording audio from my computer, usually music from YouTube videos, the audio, when playing the track just recorded, is very faint. I think my recording settings for recording system sounds are mostly correct. I get a wave form, but quite small in amplitude. If I highlight the track and amplify it in Effects it comes out ok. Something has changed as this problem was not there before. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greg in Taiwan.

Check the Recording Meter slider

Thanks- I figured that out after I posted.
