Re: What level should i keep my drums so theres enough room for editing?
The "green" is perfect. 24bit word has 144dB dynamics and your end product most likely only has 14dB or less. There's no point in trying to "hit zero" when tracking! There are possible problems, but not a single benefit from doing so.
Even if you left 48dB headroom, you would still have a full 16bit word (96dB) to play with, and I think quite many of us can agree that CD's can play loud enough...
Anyone want to try recording way lower than the green/yellow line? There's a volume knob on your monitor controller, use it for volume.
