Should I max out the signal and attunate it in PT or feed in a mid level signal and pull it up in PT.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">You should attenuate it in PT. When recording to any digital media, you want to maximize the number of bits that you are using. If you record everything without exceeding -6dBFS, then you might as well use a 14 bit system. It is a more efficient use of the bit depth to record as hot as possible and then attenuate.
Keep in mind that if you record at a low level and then boost the level significantly in PT, you are also boosting the noise floor, quantization error, etc. for that track. <hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">this is such a crock of ***** .
if I have to explain further, you wouldn't understand.
