Hey everyone, I'm using the latest version for podcasting. I have found all the perfect settings and when I listen to the piece before compiling all the tracks into the final track, it sounds amazing. Volume and pitch is perfect, no echo and no reverb. However, when I export it to MP3 or AAC, it sounds like ****. There's an echo behind everyone's voice and the volume is out of wack. If I open the "final" piece in Garage Band, no amount of editing makes this final piece sound as good as the first edit. What am I doing wrong? How do I keep the sound the same?

I am currently exporting it at high quality, master echo and reverb is off, and I have the channel EQ, compressior, and noise gate plug ins on and tweaked.

Do you have the "Auto Normalize" box checked? Prefs > Advanced

I had some issues with volume being way too low.
