Mixes sound louder in Reaper
Hello,
I've been using Reaper for some time now, but I always had this "problem". Everytime I am making a song, the overall volume is louder than it is when I am playing the mixdown on my laptop. I am using a Behringer UCM1820 as my main audio interface and I also use it to playback music on my laptop when I am listening to music on YouTube or elsewhere.
I have also downloaded music from YouTube, imported it in Reaper and it sounds louder.
Since I am using the same device to playback, both in Reaper and on Windows, could this be a Reaper thing?
The thing is, whenever I am mixing I tend to lower the reference volume using the interface's knob, but I want to keep it at the same level, both when using Reaper and when using Windows and I want the mixdown to sound at the same level.
Can you give me an advice on how to solve this? Thank you.
