Re: Setting Recording Levels in Vista
ope you get an answer to this question Mary - and by the way, your messages are getting through. I recall lengthy threads on this subject some time ago, and it all seems to hinge around the fact that the settings for enabling recording in Vista's Control Panel application are hidden until you know the process to go through to unhide them. So, this is what we want from anyone who knows about this. I don't use Vista but should I encounter a machine running it then I would like to know how to get at these hidden controls. Sorry can't be of more help. Ray. Mari Dole wrote: Hello, This is the third time I've sent this, and I don't think it's getting through. It may be my inexperience with Vista.

Re: Setting Recording Levels in Vista
Hi Mari, 1. You can open the Sound dialog by opening the start menu and typing sound. The first match will probably be sound recorder, but you can just arrow down one to sound, and then press enter. 2. Press ctrl+tab to move to the recording page, where there's a list of devices. Select a device, and press spacebar ( or choose properties from its context menu). 3. A properties dialog for that device opens. Move to the levels page of this dialog, and there'll be a slider where you can set the recording level. Then just press the ok button, and you're returned to the sound dialog. Other stuff you can do on the recording page of the sound dialog from the context menu of a selected device: 1. set disabled and disconnected devices to be shown in the list. 2. set the selected device as default. 3. enable the device if it's disabled.

Setting Recording Levels in Vista
Greetings Everyone, My old computer of eight years finally died and I now have a new one, with the dreaded Vista operating system. If anyone uses this OS, could you please tell me how to set recording levels, especially for a USB microphone. Many thanks.
