-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The man page does mention the -D (uppercase) option but doesn't say a lot about it. I just did a 'arecord -l' and got some interesting info. I'm really tempted to install a second card in my machine as I'm not happy with how ALSA deals with my SI7012 on-board sound card. My MIC gains are very low and under linux are plain staticy. I can't even use the reflector effectively. My soundblaster live card used to be great though that was in a different machine. I also get a repeated ticking noise whenever I record using arecord on linux. Goldwave records line input just fine under windows but the mic gain is extremely low over there too. I'm about to conclude that on-board sound cards just don't cut it!
