Only to play with the volume= parameter, I'm sure you tried that, maybe there are some audio controls but I haven't found them. The VCR tapes I have to transfer have very quiet and muffled audio, old home videos so I thought the audio sounded ok. I will be doing some recordings with this in a week or so after a business trip so maybe I'll find out something more then. There must be someone on this list who knows a great deal more about the mixers and filters available.
