Garageband exports my audio's volume too low

So occasionally Garageband decides to export my audio with an outcome that is too low to hear. The audio sounds perfect while it's recording in Garageband itself, but once it exports to an mp3 and try to play it in Itunes or Quicktime, it's way too low. Anyone know how to fix this?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5), Garageband 10

What are your settings for "auto normalize" in Garageband's Preferences > Audio?

Try, if changing that setting helps.

And check the corresponding options in iTunes, to see, if you have options enabled, that change the sound of your GarageBand songs: Sound Enhancer, Soundcheck. If you enabled those options, turn them off.
