[Alsa-user] VIA 82c686b, weak record, is there a "boost" setting?

[Jeff Pierce]

I finally got mic record working with my VIA 82c686B equipped mobo using snd-via82xx. However, the record audio level is much lower then with a SB 16 ISA in the same system.

Is there some kind of "boost setting"? I now there is on a SB PCI. Setting it gives an xxdb increase.

I ran a test using sound studio, once using oss sb driver,and then using alsa snd-via82xx with the mic level set at 85% for both The result was that the SB 16 registered a level that was greater by over 10db than the alsa driver.

I use sound primarily for amateur radio VoIP and connected nodes state they have to really crank their output volume up for my audio when using the alsa driver.

Anybody know?
