I had a SBLive! until I blew the card with too high a level while
trying to work out how to record Line-In.

I now have the SB Audigy 2 ZS internal.  Uses the same driver as the
Live!.

1.  Using Alsamixer, press the F5 key to see ALL the controls (check
the View: line at the top)

2.  Turn on the Line control.  I set the volume level at 94.

3.  Go down to the Analog M control.  I set the volume level to 96.
(This may not actually be a requirement, but I do it anyway.)

4.  Go right beside it to the Analog M Capture control (this is
probably the control you are not setting.  Without this on, you're not
going to get any input from the Line-In hardware jack.  I also think
it would be needed if you trying to record the Audio CD input,
depending on which type of input you are using: analog or digital).  I
set the volume level at 94.

You can record the Line-In jack now.

I turn off the PCM Capture control if I'm only recording Line-In.  You
could leave it on to capture PCM sounds, like your audio software
playing a song while you record vocals to it with the Line-In.

I think that's what the Analog Mixer is for, being able to mix various
inputs at the same time, and Analog Mixer Capture will let you record
it.  But for Line-In, the PCM is not being used and you *have* to use
Analog Mixer Capture.

Hope this helps,
Stephen.
