Hello, I have been having problems with the alsamixer. It seems usb devices like my Edirol UA-5 don't have mixer elements. Anyway, I've been having VERY VERY low input from microphones when recording. I wondered if it could be due to the alsamixer? I use CCRMA Audacity to record. Even if I set my gain on the card to 7 (over that you experience loss in quality) I have to amplify the recorded sound alot! Is this normal? My microphones are Shure SM48 and Behringer Ultravoice. Is it that Edirol preamps are crappy? Would I get better results using an external mixer (lets say a Mackie or Yamaha) for preamp (connected through RCA type plugs)? Any help would be appreciated!
Oh, I just thought about this, is there any chance that Linux will support multiple inputs devices (10 inputs or more) like the Mackie ONYX 1620-1640 and the UA-1000?
