Hi,
I record my mixes at -4db gain otherwise it goes into the red, but then the mix is too quiet and when I upload it to soundcloud people have to turn their speakers up to hear it.
How do I solve this problem?

You need to be sure your Master Volume is high enough and that the Record Volume is low enough.
:)
I set my recording volume to the max with no clipping.
That's what I mean by no clipping. I set it and monitor it during recording to make sure it doesn't go into the red.
I normalize it after using peak pro but you could use audacity, it's free.

I set my Master to -3.
Then the recording volume -1.
No problem at all.
I up the level a bit in Ableton when producing my radio show using my and guest mixes.
Rather come in cold than too hot.
You can always up the volume. You can't undo distortion\clipping.
