Hi Chris!
What is the actual problem you have with the gain?
Is it too low, then why don't just amplify your track.
The way you put it does not quite make sense to me. What is your concept of=
gain?
Usually inverting means inverting the phase. If you do this with one channe=
l of a stereo track your stereo picture changes dramatically, but it does i=
n no way influence the gain.
