Clipping/Red Light even though Audio Volume is down?
I have a very quiet clip that's audio volume is very low, and I've tried segregating the plugins with no luck. For my project my professor said that we aren't allowed to have any clipping or red lights in the mixer, but it all sounds perfectly fine and doesn't sound like its distorting or anything.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Just use Clip Gain to lower the level by 1-2db of the wave itself.

So if the source is quiet, does that mean that there are some plugins with extreme gain-staging/amplification?
