I think that can play and record at the same time if that is what you are after... Al -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Nige I think the combination of pavucontrol and pavumeter should cover your needs I could be wrong though. Hi Dave I gave it a try as you suggested. The pavumeter just gives you another visual representation of the levels set in the pavucontrol. It doesn't actually provide any additional settings unfortunately.
