I guess everything is fine with your setup but your mixer |
| 5 |
isn't set properly. |

* Your card has a monitor. Incoming signals are routed back to |
| 8 |
the outputs immediately. This means that the incoming data |
| 9 |
never left your soundcard towords your CPU!!! |

* If you want to record (especially with JACK) you do not want |
| 12 |
this kind of hardware monitor. So switch it off in ALSAmixer |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
* Now ensure that your recording environment catches the audio |
| 15 |
input (this means unmuting and levelling the inports) and |
| 16 |
process it the right way. If you're using JACK maybe you want |
| 17 |
to use |
| 18 |
meterbridge -n meterbridge -t dpm alsa_pcm:capture_1 |
| 19 |
alsa_pcm:capture_2 |
| 20 |
to monitor and level the incoming signal before recording it |
| 21 |
with qarecord or ardour |
