What you need to adjust is the line input volume on your mixer.
My setup is a cassette Walkman with a double-ended wire from the headphone jack to the line in. The volume on the WM is the same as if I were using headphones. The mixer I use isn't deb'ed yet (unless it's in sid). Just do an apt-cache search and find one you're comfortable with if you don't already have one installed. You can e-mail me off-list if you want more detailed technical info. Bob > Thanks, > Cameron Matheson
