Reference Track too Quiet for Limiter Stress Test
I just downloaded I Won't Back Down by Tom Petty as a reference track, and the wave file looks like it never went through a limiter. Nothing even close to peaking out. I even raised it a couple db, and still has plenty of headroom. I'm looking to do a Limiter Stress Test, and am wondering if I should put some limiting on this track. If you knew how long it took me to finally find an MP3 of it (amazon would only allow streaming) you'd know my frustration at seeing this track being so quiet. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

@Tom Baldwin Yeah, that's what I was hoping might happen. I was trying to fit a bar from a 3rd song in, but it took me the better part of a day, and everything I tried stuck out like a sore thumb, so I reused the first on in the first part and the second time on the third part of the song, I just played it an octave lower. I was a bit concerned about copyright issues, but since I'm not using a lyric or a melody, nor am I sampling, I figured I'd be ok. Plus the chances of that song going anywhere that might cause an issue would also be quite remote. Still, it's what I love doing so, keep on keepin' on.... Also had it used in a Mad Records song review type of event looking for input, and no one there noticed, or at least no one said anything.

Had I known about reference tracks a long time ago, there's no telling where I'd be now...

Vocal Microphone Choices
How does one go about figuring out what vocal mic works best for their voice in a home studio? There are so many options, and so many different things to listen for. Does anyone use the Gauge Mic Locker that emulates 8 different mics? And what physical mic would you sing into (sm 57 for instance) to get the best results from the Mic Locker to actually come close to one of their emulations, if that is indeed a viable option?
