low as in low volume? are you talking about just beats or do you have vocals as well?
if that's the case, its relatively normal. Almost all home-produced music is going to be lower than your commercial cd's just because that stuff gets professionally mastered (volume, clarity, punchiness, presence maximized). There are tricks that you'll pick up along the way to maximize the volume and all that pre-mastering but most stuff gets mastered before its released and although some prefer the light-handed way of simply putting out the raw shit (e.g. wings of an angel heh) you have to be good and very knowledgeable about working with audio (e.g. wings of an angel)...try pm'ing him or posting some questions in the thread called "wings of an angel's 101" and i'm sure he can go more into depth about it...if i could ask him anything, it would be about this stuff...he knows his audio.
that being said, don't become obsessed with your stuff being as loud as possible...until you know what you're doing, it makes it sound cheaper.
hope this helps

the reason it stays low because u are lowlow...hence the name...lol
I will continue to spit this... goto har-bal.com and cop the software. NO I dont work for them.
Since I got the thing it has improved my ability to master at home.
Yes it still requires plugins after using it to give the overall mastered effect but the 2.0 version
has the limiter and it automatically boosts or cuts the volume on whatever your final mix is.
After I grasped the concept and started playing with it I fell out. IT WORKS.
