And FWIW - aim for -12dBfs as your level when recording, not just below clipping. You'll maximize your soundstage and also your hardware's sound.
This is a great video with insight about levels from the creator of the Metric Halo interfaces & software.

Thanks to all for their input.....
This particular response made me realize what I was doing wrong
I went back to my recorder and remastered the songs at a higher gain
And the results were good
My recorder's meter doesn't show db levels , just the bars, so it took a few tries to get in the sweet spot for my recordings
I appreciate the help
