The "Digital Capture Volume" is alsa-lib softvol plugin element, and works globally. In the case of a digital mic (i.e. usually without a volume control), sometimes this is the only effective control. > Strangely, though, the '* Mic' controls in the PLAYBACK section of alsamixer > do change the recording properties somewhat (volume being the main factor). If you mean about "Mic Boost" or such, then it's a known (long-standing) bug in ALSA mixer interface. This appears twice, for playback and capture, but only the playback one works. > In any event, i get a rather large amount of static, no matter what mixer > settings i try.
