Hello Bryan, I haven't read any of the replies if any yet, but as a rule of 
thumb I will keep some of the core instrument tracks at minus 10 or more DB. If 
you find any other tracks dominating that level then you know that you are 
pushing things. On top of that I will track Fairley low as well. Are you trying 
to mix or master with a control surface?

Subject: question about mixing with a control surface

Hello all,
Okay, this might sound like a really stupid question, so my apologies right up 
front.  Does anyone have any tips for getting used to mixing with a control 
surface?  Coming to pro tools from Sonar, in Sonar, I would mix totally in the 
box and use the keyboard to mix my volume adjustments, but I wanted to do the 
control surface route in pro tools.  With my control surface which is the 
BCF2000, there is no indention on the fader to let me know that I am at unity 
gain, so just am curious to hear some tips for getting used to mixing with a 
control surface.  When I was trying to set volumes yesterday, I noticed that my 
volumes were like +3 and up sometimes.  Just trying to get used to the whole 
concept of mixing with a control surface.  Thanks for any help or tips, Brian
