[Rwp] Is it just me, or...

[Chris Belle]

Look at everything in your chain, it could be anything from your 
interface hardware settings, to your speakers, if you are monitoring 
through a home theatre
type system, it might have a compressor enabled,
or a board with some dsp, but reaper by default gives you exactly what 
you put in to it.
I forgot what interface you said you had, was it alesus multi-mix,
but make sure no limiter is turned on there, and turn off your 
enhancements if it's something like the realtech card.
Those realtech cards
are not the thing you want to use to get clean, and uncolored 
recordings, though they can work in a pinch,
if you have nothing else, but you have to make sure none of the bass 
boost, or stufff in the control pannel is going on.
