Bouncing

[scooterscot]

Im sorry if this topic has been covered before. If it has been, please send me a link of some sort. But anyways, every time I bounce my mix and play it back, it always sounds wayyyyyyyyyyyyy different. The volumes are always different and the quality is always lessened. I usually bounce it 16 bit, 44.1, wave. So to get to my question, is there something Im doing wrong? Or is there a more efficient way to export my final mix into a wave format?

 

Thank you for your time.

+1 i posted a similar topic but to no avail

check this:

-at which samplerate do you record/produce

-at what bit depth do you record/produce

-do you have "normalize" engaged when bouncing

-do you use any compression when bouncing.

 

do the following:

-bounce at the same sample rate you record/produce

-bounce at the same bit depth (if you work in 24 bit dont bounce in 16)

-uncheck normalize

-uncheck everthing but "wav" in bounce dialog.

Yeah, normalizing definitely changed it a bit, thank you very much for your help!

actually now that i think of it,

if you used samples logic DOESNT work in 16bit EVER (you can only record in 16bit if yo uwish), so you shoud always bounce in 24bit if you want "as i hear it" results
