The volume fader on windows should not affect the output volume of the WAV files you export.

I have found that in my DAW, if I have the outputs too high or too low that does in fact affect the volume of the WAV file.

I have my system set up so that the first thing that uses ASIO will grab it. That makes it unavailable to everything else. So when I open BB after my DAW, BB has to use one of the other drivers. Even when doing this.... I have never had any kind of issue with the resultant volume of the WAV files I export from BB.

Regarding Normalization..... Use it when necessary. If the audio is of a sufficient level, it's really not necessary at the track level very often. I use it when it's needed and almost always on the final output WAV when it's in my audio editor while I'm getting it ready for prime time.
