Hi!
It seems when I record acoustic guitar, that the sound levels on certain strums fluctuate, and on looping, quite often the first strum when it goes back to the beginning of the loop again is quieter and is very noticeable. I must obviously be strumming harder as I go on and get into the song so it's getting louder, and obviously when it loops back round again the first initial strum is quieter. The attack transients on the waveform when I zoom in are at different heights as well - visually. Should they all be the same size in order for it to sound even in volume? is this what a producer would do, or would it just be recorded again?
I'm using Reason, and this daw is probably behind the times in it's audio recording manipulation capabilities in comparison to other daws. Do other daws ('cause this is something I've just noticed would be handy now) have a way of making certain strums or wave transients in audio the exact same size or volume? That would be a great feature in the next version of Reason. A way to highlight certain attack points/transients and make them all the same size/amplitude/volume.
I've tried compression and this doesn't alter the wave visually so they still jump out in places.
Thanks!
