I didn't look at all the rack mounted models, but I know one of the portable models has a limiter built in. I'm not a believer that computers are the solution for everything. For some sound recording, I use a solid state recorder then edit with Audacity. A lot of things can go wrong with recording on a computer. You need to insure only one source is recorded, which Audacity does, but some recorders just record the "mixer". Basically, less is more. ------Original Message------ From: sonofzev@xxxxxxxxxxxx To: sonofzev@xxxxxxxxxxxx To: gary Cc: alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: 'Steve Henke' ReplyTo: sonofzev@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Linux Recording AGC Using Sound Card Mic Volume Control Sent: Jun 11, 2009 11:58 PM No I was thinking something more like a Behringer MIC 100 http://www.behringer.com/en/products/mic100.aspx The PMD 560 would negate the need for an PC based system with linux and ALSA.. but probably still requires something like the MIC-100 in before it.
