Terrell Washington Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I’m having a hard time keeping the sound quality on a wave file when I transfer it. How do I make that happen on logic? Every time I transfer a wave file to my iPhone/email/notes, it sounds way quiet and can barely hear the full sound. Why is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scg Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Some starting points for troubleshooting: - How are you transferring the files? - Are you sure it's related to Logic? What happens if you transfer a standalone audio file, like a sample or something, without going through Logic? Does the behavior still occur? - How are you evaluating the volume difference? At the risk of stating the obvious, it sounds like you're listening in multiple environments (through Logic, maybe on your phone, etc.), which means there will be various differences like system volume, quality of speakers/headphones, etc. How are you determining that the actual volume is lower? - Have you opened the original and transferred files in an audio editor (e.g. Audacity) to see if they're actually significantly different? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherking Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 is this a mix, or a single part? and how are you determining it's volume? check the level meters in logic... are you close to 0.0? & have you tried a little compression on the file? (and all the things @scg said) 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrell Washington Posted March 30 Author Share Posted March 30 so I’m on Logic Pro and I want my song to be transferred to my iCloud Drive so I can master the file. What’s the steps in order to get the file through without losing quality. I literally have to turn my volume all the way up in the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I literally have to turn my volume all the way up in the car if it's a pre-master, it should be lower in volume, as whoever masters it needs headroom to do what they do. it won't sound 'competitive' (in volume and quality) with whatever else you listen to in the car until it is mastered...
