Hello again, unfortunately the mPower does not have an automatic gain control on the microphone input - that means that you may need to play with the record level manually. For instance, if your internal microphone record level is set to 8, try reducing it to 6 and see if it improves. This is an area we are looking at for future work, and it appears we'll be able to do something clever in software to simulate an automatic gain control. Again, I'm not sure when it will make it into a release, since it will need a lot of testing, and it's pretty subjective.
It may be worth trying an external microphone for recording, which will almost certainly be a lot clearer, not being stuck inside a case, picking up keyboard noise, and so on. Mr Mosen recommended a nice external microphone a few months back on this list I think ... and I know lots of people on the list make recordings all the time. I tried recording some guitar on an mPower the other day (not in work time I hasten to add) and I'll try with an external mic this week, if I can find the adaptor I need. The recording is certainly better than I've managed on my laptop so far. regards, Andy. ---- Andrew Riden Software Development Engineer HumanWare Ltd. 11 Mary Muller Drive, Christchurch, New Zealand.
