📎 AI Summary:
The original poster is experiencing automatic volume dips in audio tracks while working in Ableton Live and is asking if Windows has a built-in limiter or automatic gain control (AGC). A responder suggests that such automatic volume adjustments only occur if using Windows' default sound recording tools. The thread mainly discusses whether Windows' audio system includes safeguards like limiters or AGC, with the implication that the issue may be related to specific recording settings.

Hi,

Is there a limiter or AGC built into the Windows audio system that automatically lowers volume?

I'm working in abelton live and every few seconds the volume of different audio tracks seems
to be automatically lowering, someone suggested it might be a limiter or AGC.

Any info appreciated.

Thanks

Only if you are recording with the default Windows sound tool...
An image from 'Is there a sound setting in windows that auto lowers volume?'. Windows Sound settings open to Communications tab for adjusting audio during calls.
