How Do I keep my mic from clipping?

I'm doing a lot of fluctuation with my voice from semi-quiet tones to high, loud tones. Is there a way to setup Logic so the input volume will adjust with my voice so I don't clip?

Mac OS X (10.5)

If you're already clipping on the Input of your Audio Interface there is nothing Logic can do against that. Of course you can insert a Limiter to an Input object which you can create in your environment but that will only avoid the clipping of the Audio track you're recording to not the Signal Input in your Interface. If you're recording in 24 Bit you don't need to record at such high levels anyway. Also a good microphone singing technique could help you - soft notes near to the mic, loud ones a bit further away from the mic.
