| Hello I have a problem with my microphone. I have installed onboard cmipci 9738, everything seems to be ok. I can hear music, mp3's etc, but I can't recording. I have tried muting/umnuting with alsamixer and the result was that I can hear myself in speakers - I talk to microphone and I hear myself in speakers. So, the microphone is good. I have emerged audacity and no waves appeared while the sound was recording - one single line - no waves at all. I am using alsa drivers, audacity (and other recording programs) are using /dev/dsp. Here is my alsa.conf: > ## ALSA portion > alias char-major-116 snd > alias char-major-14 soundcore > alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci > ## OSS/Free portion > alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 > ## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1 > ## > > # OSS/Free portion - card #1 > ## OSS/Free portion - card #2 > alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss > alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss > alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss > alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss > alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss > > alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss > alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss > alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss > > # Set this to the correct number of cards. > > # --- BEGIN: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- > # --- ALSACONF version 1.0.9a --- > #alias snd-card-0 snd-*** err [lib/liblow.c(329)]: > #alias sound-slot-0 snd-*** err [lib/liblow.c(329)]: > alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci > alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 > # --- END: Generated by ALSACONF, do not edit. --- Any suggestions ?

| I'm not sure about this, but the default settings in alsamixer might be to mute the recording devices. Check alsamixer (I think its ncurses so use a terminal) to see if the recording devices are turned up and not on mute. ~David~ Micha³ wrote: > > Hello > > I have a problem with my microphone.

The solution is to run the alsamixer, turns on mic, then pressing tab key to switch to the capture menu and finally space key under mic tab. The word Capture L R apeears under mic and that means sound from the mic can be recorded. |
