Input and level automation
Every sound card has a least two inputs (microphone and line), as well as
various "internal" inputs for the CD drive or the signal from another program,
for example, Internet radio. With input and level automation you can
automatically select the correct input for your recording without having to
search and adjust the input level in order to avoid distortions.
To do so, click on "Audio input" in the record dialog. If you had already
connected your source and begun playback, the correct input will be
determined immediately. Otherwise do this now and click on "Search channel
again".
If this didn't work, use the "Windows mixer" button to open the Windows Mixer
and select the channel manually.
Adjusting the recording level is essential when recording digitally via sound
cards in order to achieve optimum sound quality. If the adjustment is set too
high, distortion occurs and the incoming signal must be reduced. If you reduce
input sensitivity, the resolution at which the analog signal is digitized is also
reduced. The level controllers of your sound card should generally be set as
high as possible in order to achieve optimum results. Yardstick for an optimal
level is the loudest part of the material. The loudest part should be adjusted to
the maximum. You can now adjust the recording level with the help of the LED
display in the record dialog.
You can adjust the level of the source manually using the "Volume" controller.
If you activated "Automatic level adjustment", the level controller will
automatically be set to the correct value.
