Thanks!
This is a demo right now so it's just the framework for the song. The levels in the final mix get brought up to "radio" volume. In 24 bit digital recording you have to make sure no tracks get hotter than about -6db to leave plenty of headroom for the entire mix as a whole. It took me forever to understand that because I come from the tape-recording era.
