Looking through your routing I think you are sending the mic directly to the speaker, I would definitely test capturing the signal over the I2S as well to confirm it is consistently a low volume on both paths. > :) thank you very much so far.

But I would definitely try a test with this switch turned on. From the input circuitry diagrams in the data sheet kinda looks like it will be needed to connect one side of the input PGA to the grounded output in your schematic. > numid=85,iface=MIXER,name='INPGAR IN2R Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=off > numid=86,iface=MIXER,name='INPGAR IN3R Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=on > numid=87,iface=MIXER,name='INPGAR IN4R Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=off > numid=2,iface=MIXER,name='Input Mixer Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=2 > : values=off,on > numid=94,iface=MIXER,name='Input Mode' > ; type=ENUMERATED,access=rw------,values=1,items=2 > ; Item #0 'Analog' > ; Item #1 'Digital' > : values=1 Ah... I think you have the wrong path configured here. This appears to be coming from the digital mics. Just to confirm it is the analog mics you are having issues with? > numid=91,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR IN2R Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=off > numid=6,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR IN2R Volume' > ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=7,step=0 > : values=7 > | dBscale-min=-15.00dB,step=3.00dB,mute=0 > numid=92,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR IN3R Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=off > numid=8,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR IN3R Volume' > ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=7,step=0 > : values=0 > | dBscale-min=-15.00dB,step=3.00dB,mute=0 > numid=93,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR PGA Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 > : values=on > numid=7,iface=MIXER,name='MIXINR PGA Volume' > ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=7,step=0 > : values=7 > | dBrange- > rangemin=0,,rangemax=1 > | dBscale-min=0.00dB,step=6.00dB,mute=0 > rangemin=2,,rangemax=2 > | dBscale-min=13.00dB,step=13.00dB,mute=0 > rangemin=3,,rangemax=4 > | dBscale-min=18.00dB,step=2.00dB,mute=0 > rangemin=5,,rangemax=5 > | dBscale-min=24.00dB,step=0.00dB,mute=0 > rangemin=6,,rangemax=7 > | dBscale-min=27.00dB,step=3.00dB,mute=0 > Plenty of gain on the PGA. > numid=65,iface=MIXER,name='Speaker Switch' > ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=2 > : values=on,off > numid=64,iface=MIXER,name='Speaker Volume' > ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=0,max=127,step=0 > : values=121,121 > | dBscale-min=-121.00dB,step=1.00dB,mute=1 Thanks, Charles
