Re: Meters won't peak while recording...EVER!!?!??
Hey. I believe I am having a similar issue. I have an UA Apollo interface, but it's pretty much the same thing you are describing. The levels coming in to ProTools are lower than the levels I see in the Apollo's software mixer application. I have to crank up/distort the preamps on the Apollo to get the meter inside ProTools to come close to clipping. I was thinking there must be some kind of calibration or input trim setting that I don't know about -- either in the Apollo software or (more likely) in ProTools. Sound like your issue?

Re: Meters won't peak while recording...EVER!!?!??
Do you have any active inserts on your guide track messing up your gain staging? Screen shots could be helpful.

No inserts are being used on our guide track at all. I would post screenshots but I am not sure how helpful they would be as you would just be looking at a meter which is clipping.

Re: Meters won't peak while recording...EVER!!?!??
What is the sample rate of your session? What is the sample rate of your imported track? It's a long shot, but that may cause issues.
Are you able to monitor the imported track in a different daw and see if its happening there? What is the track peaking at in different software? If its just a guide track why not use a trim pluggin and turn it down? If its not a keeper why does it matter if its clipping the channel fader ?

Hi illution1,
I cannot speak to Univeral Audio's gear, but the issue here was solved via a Driver update. The software on our unit is showing what is happening right in the A/D Converter. The audio then goes through the driver and in to Pro Tools. So the problem this customer experienced was in the driver. You may want to may sure you have all the latest driver updates and contact Universal Audio directly. Best regards.
