Hi Doc.

I'm messing about with Goldwave and wanting to voice over some audio. However, I cannot get a good enough quality. I can record voice in my sony minidisk, but that's a bit complicated using this machine as well as using my computer. I'd have thought that my sound card and goldwave would allow quite good quality sound recording. Perhaps I'm wrong? Never done it or seen it done before.

Best wishes.

Hi Doc.

Thanks for that. I didn't even know of the other available options, once
the ALT was pressed. However, despite going through this and setting my mic
level at 60, the recordings I end up with are terrible. Very quiet and
noisy. I'm sure it's a settings thing as this is a Packard Bell computer
which was not the cheapest in the store. Any ideas?


Best wishes.

He will need to first go into the menu and be sure that "advance" is
checked
in the first place.
Press the alt key once
arrow up to advance  and press enter if it is not checked.

Hi Andy,

go to the audio tab and start pressing the tab key.  in the recording
settings, when you tab past the mic volume setting, you should find a
control labeled advance control.  Hit enter on it and you should get a 20
db
mic gain to check. After checking it, tab to close and then see if it
improves.  I have a soundblaster audigy 2 card so my settings may be
slightly different from yours...

Hope that helps.

Judy

Hi Judy

I am using Windows XP Home and my Sound Card is a Sigmatell Audio. I went
into Sounds and Audio Devices, Properties Sheets and had a look at the
properties of the Sound Recording Device. The only option I found there
for
adjusting the volume was was a link for Sound Recording Level, this took
me
to my Volume Control Sheet and everything looked fine, the mic level was
at
100%. I could not see any mention of mic gain boost anywhere. Am I
looking
in the right place?


Best wishes.
Andy

Try the mic gain boost in recording properties--it says advanced controls
and check the 20 db mic boost.


Hope that helps

Judy

Hi all.

The subject line says it all. I have three mini-plugs on the back of my
computer. The first has my line-in attached to a minidisk. The second
is
for my speakers, so I've plugged the microphone into the third socket.
I've
bumped everything up to 100% in the volume control of XP and did the same
to
the volume control within my sound card. However, the sound is very low.
Not an expensive microphone, but I'd have liked better. Perhaps there is
something else which I need to do. I'm using the microphone with
Goldwave.
Any advise would be very welcomed. Thanks.


Best wishes.
