Hello all, hope you don't mind putting twopennorth in. I'm premier's biggest fan. The audio mixer is very unforgiving. If it says you've clipped-you've clipped. Digital clipping is fatal. I use audio editing software such as protools and cubase for sound tracks. The plug-in compressors available are generally acceptable, though I stear clear as production companies insist on no compression as a rule. As far as premier's concerned going back over the tracks and being diligent with the faders and the record/latch feature'll do it. Looks like a nice, friendly forum, this. regards P.S
