After creating, arming, and setting the monitor on your track, create some source audio. Sing or speak in to the microphone, play your instrument, do what ever you do to make noise. Try your best to sing or play with approximately the same energy and gusto as you will when you are performing for the recording. After you stop playing or singing, press alt-f9 and or alt-f10 to check the level on your currently selected track which should be "first track" in your peak watcher. Osara should report the peak level of your performance. This means that you will be told only the highest level your audio peaked at. You will not be told the lowest, or average peak. To reset the meter for track one of your peak watcher, press alt-f8. At this point, you can either try again, resetting levels as needed, or adjusting your performance, or you can record!
