You initially asked about CD recording levels, so if you're talking final mixdown again >0< is my preference but sometimes something within the music will warrant backing off or (tread lightly) moving into the "Danger Zone"...hey you know, there's a possibilty of a song there...Nah..probably 'bin done.
