Allow me to clear this up. Firstly please do not expect or use automated bottom wiping machines that fall into same class as a suggested auto gain plug. Give up now if you need that.
Whatever your first sound source is in a new track, drums, synth etc. Just peak that at about -18 to -12dBFS. on your stereo master bus it is not critical where the actual peak is. Leave channel fader at 0.
Do this (peak between -18/-12dBFS) on stereo out by turning down the source itself such as synth output vol, virtual drum machine output vol, sampler output vol etc.
Then forget any other type of meters and produce your track. Never think about this ever again for the rest of your music production life.
