Ok so I purchase some recording equipment to record electric guitar through my Marshall stack. I have 2xShure SM57, Saffire Focusrite Pro 40 Audio Interface, Headphones are AKG K271, running on a MacBook Pro with Pro Tools 9HD. Each time I record the wave lines are small compared to what they should be. When Pro Tools gives me a pre recorded audio clip or when I insert a backtrack from an outside source the wave lines are large and well normal. where as mine are small. (so I have to turn up the volume high to compensate on the interface to hear my recorded track and lower the volume on the outside audio file to hear it through the headphones) Why are the sound wave lines so small? The mics are pressed against the cabinet and the amp is loud enough. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong and explain with detail as I am retarded with these things. Mics are attached to the Audio Interface is input, fire-wire to computer that's it.
Jett - I agree with the other answer.
Also make sure you are using 3 Pin Xlr cables on both mics - use channels one and two on your interface - make sure the gain adjustment on each mic input is set to just below the red on your meters. That should give you plenty of signal for recording.
