Once the detailed volumn control (i.e. the one with multiple controls which you can get to by right clicking on the sound icon in the tray as well as othe ways), look at properties. You can select which sound card you are changing parameters for and whether it is audio out or in.
As a side thought that may help some, when I set this system up I wanted to use the motherboard sound card for Ham and a Sound Blaster for normal sound. I had to go to system properties and disable the on-board sound card to get the system to use the Sound Blaster as it's default. Then after rebooting, I re-enabled the on-board sound card and all has been well. If I recall right though the on-board sound card is now number 2 with the SB being 1 and no card as 0. 73 Stan, N3HS -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Pixton Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2004 7:28 AM To: Robert McGwier; Writelog Subject: RE: [WriteLog] Problems with two sound cards and MMTTY plug-in All with more than one sound card, There is a "gotcha" that I have discovered with WinXP Pro and Writelog/MMTTY. Most of us have learned that the index numbers assigned to sound boards go along with their physical installation. So that a sound board on the mother board would be [0], the first card I install would be [1] and the second would be [2]. But in WinXP there are two different orderings of the list on sound devices. If you have WinXP open the volume control applet that we all use to adjust the volume for record and playback. Compare that list of devices (goes along with physical installation) with the list that you get from the Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices. Here you can change the default device which always becomes index [0] moving the index used to get to the other cards. So the indexes that MMTTY and older versions of Writelog (before the new WlSbControl which lets you pick the exact card you want to use) are often off by one depending on how you have the default devices set. If you only have one sound card this is not a concern Nice consistent software???
