This is how it is supposed to work In Linux -when you adjust "line-in" or "microphone" levels you are adjusting how loudly these streams will be sent out over the speakers -you will want to turn them down to ZERO -you only need to adjust the "igain" slider to adjust how
IMHO RAT should -still let you choose "mic-in" or "line in" (is anyone using mic-in?) -but the slider ought to adjust "igain" (maybe it does in the latest versions) i favor using aumix for adjusting the levels On Tuesday 12 October 2004 10:43 am, Gavin W.
