Default Tracking Levels and Playback Levels

I noticed that the tracking level is much lower than the playback level.
Example, I tracked a b3 player + b3 solo. Sounded great, but when I played it back, it was clipping and much louder on the playback from when we tracked.

I notice when I track something I have to turn up the fader, and on playback turn it down...

This issue inevitably led to me having 5 different takes of very good solos almost unusable because of clipping....

Now, is there a plug, (I'm trying some compression), that will assist in reducing the clipping?
