[QUOTE="Eric Cagle, post: 98850, member: 277"] Re: Mixing live tracks: headphones or monitors Most likely you are recording at 24bit on the multitrack. The 16bit CD is not going to sound quite as good. That is usually noticeable more in the mid to upper range than the low mids though. The other issue could be the digital to analog conversion on what you are listening to the 16bit CD from. All converters sound slightly different just like all preamps sound slightly different. I assume you are staying 24bit through the entire process until the final conversion to a 16bit file. [/QUOTE]
