I use Real band with Line 6 ux2 sound card. When i record my guitar (or my voice) the level is fine comparing to the audio tracks made by realtracks. But afterwards the recorded track has a much lover volume level than the others and i have to take down the faders for the real band tracks til 55. Is this normal? Can i affect the recording level inside Real band?

Realband can't really affect the record level, it's the soundcard's job.
You CAN use the VU meter in Realband to see the real record levels.
You can also right-click the waveform display after recording and use the 'Gain Change' effect to raise the level of the recorded track. (make sure the whole track is highlited).
I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Most soundcards have a software mixer applet that you can open by clicking on the soundcard's icon in the taskbar in windows.
BUT -- the mixer that opens is generally the PLAYBACK mixer. This one controls what you hear, but can fool you as it does not control the level of what is recorded.
There is typically a separate RECORD mixer that is found by selecting something in the Playback mixer to find it.
But we would need to know what kind of soundcard you are using, also maybe your Operating System, in order to give step-by-step directions on how to find and use your Record mixer and adjust the Record Volume properly using the VU meters inside the program.
You should not have to reduce the volume of the other tracks when things are set properly.

He mentioned Line 6 ux2 sound card, but I have no experience with this device.

Are you referring to the volume you are hearing while recording?
If you are using Gear Box which came with ux2 there are two output availabe to you in ASIO mode-- (Send1 + Send2) and (Send3 + Send4).
I use Guitar Port and Gear Box or POD Farm (which has the same options).
Send1 + Send2 is what you hear.
Send3 + Send4 is a seperate output of Gear Box.
How I use it is as follows:
I adjust Gear box to how I like to listen (reverb etc.)
Set Send3-4 on gear box to pre effects.
In Real Band go to Pref Audio and select ASIO
Select Drivers and
Select Send3 + Send4 as input
Send1 + Send2 as output
In Gear Box select Send3-4 and adjust record volume. you may have to go back and forth a few times to acquire what you need.
With this set up I can adjust the record volume without affecting what I hear
or adjust the volume of what I hear without affecting the record volume.
I have not touched the record volume for a long time.
This also allows me to record dry and add effect later in Real Band.
Hope this helps

"But afterwards the recorded track has a much lover volume level than the others"
Your explanation should give hime the help he needs.
Seems to be the signal actually getting recorded, and this *may* be because of volume adjustments while recording with the other tracks, so he can hear the other tracks while playing, or it may be the soundcard record properties are low while the line in playback properties are set higher..

That's what I was thinking, too.
