But it was a weired procedure and I do not understand why it worked. At the moment my notebook does not work, so I cannot do any testing with the latest alsa-driver. I think I used alsa 1.0.14 at that time. I will now cite an old message I sent to another guy who had problems with his audigy2, too. Perhaps the infos in that mail can help you. so here it comes: ------------------- Hi Félix, Félix C. Morency wrote: > > My output works great so I know the card > > is actually working.

One of my stages in getting my mic to work was, that audacity recorded sound but it was so quiet that I had to amplify it by 50Db to be able to hear anything. So you could try to amplify your recording to check if you have the same symptom as I had. So I cannot explain exactly what I did to make the mic work. But I can tell you how I can control my mic right now. So there are 2 relevant mixers in my kmix. The one is "Mic" and the other is "Analog Mix" both on the input side. you have to open both to get the mic recorded. Furthermore you have to select the Mic (On thatpoint there is a lot of confusion. The little red dots under the mixers are all behaving a bit like they want to and not how I use them. So when I boot my computer the mic and the analog mix seem to be selected, but the mic isn't. So I have to choose Line and then again mic and after that my mic is working. Another strange "feature" is the fact that then the Line mixer is a direct link from the mic to my output. so I can put the mix and the analog mix to 0 and the line to 100 and I still hear myself speaking into the microphone but than I cannot record it, it is only directly given out through standard output. If that does not work, I recommend you one thing. Install aumix and start it. There should be a mic mixer which is at 100 and if you try to change it it will put itself back to 100. That is what happens on mycomputer. And playing around with this mic and with selecting it in aumix for recording or the line in instead brought my microphone to work for the first time. Since that I do not have to start aumix at all. It seemed that aumix changed something in the general config and saved it for boot time restoration, but I have no idea why and what and how and why there are different mixers in alsamixer/kmix and aumix. I hope some of that stuff may help you. --------------- Alx
