Thanks Fons. A limiter perhaps was inserted, this would fit to the described issue, limited level at full throttle and getting distortion. It's unusual that the artists are allowed to use such equipment, usually locations have an engineer handling the gear. Everybody at least agrees that the OP doesn't need another sound card, the issue isn't caused by the head phone output. Buying another sound device is less useful, than reading some advices about audio engineering? IMO Wikis are good enough to learn what is needed for most audio engineering situations. Many Wikis are on a high standard. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
