I get that Herb, I just missed it the first time.

One thing though. With digital audio you don't have to be too concerned with low levels. A good system does not have inherent noise in it like the old tape decks did. With tape, you needed it as close to saturation as you can get without going over but that's not a big deal with digital audio. In my case the overall vocals (not peaks) were showing 1-2 bars at the bottom of the VU meters which is enough to boost with no issues. Rharv made a good point in the other thread about how best to do that though which I will try out.

These are good discussions. I'm reminded of the music teachers mantra, don't practice mistakes. I've been doing mostly live remote recordings using an Akai DPS 16 for years but I'm not a pro so I still have a lot to learn.
