Cannot adjust record audio level with I-Mic as audio in

Hi,
I would like to record audio from my stereo through my Griffin Technologies I-Mic connection using Audacity audio software. I cannot adjust input recording audio down even though I have completely turned off the input audio on Audicity. The recording audio is pegging red and the recorded playback audio is completely overmodulated. The audicity help techs believe the problem lies with my sound card, which happens to be the Sound Blaster 24 bit.
Months ago, I was able to do it, but this time around had no success. Is there something that I can click on the soundblaster that will allow audicity to properly adjust the input audio?

Wow, here I go again..... I found out how I locked up the audio track of my video file.
After I re-imported my original video recording, and had adjusted the volume level, I had to expand my video image to fill my "canvas". When I went to transform this layer, I was told I must first convert this to a smart object. As soon as I did that, the track turned from blue to purple!
I would hope that if I edit my original video track in such a simple way, that I would NOT loose access to adjusting the volume of my video track...... But that is the odd way that this works.............

What you need is not a mixer, but an audio interface with at least 4 mic inputs. There is a lot of choice there, but you should indicate a budget. You can go from, say, € 300 to € thousands, if you want.
Roland UA 1010
Focusrite Scarlett 18i8
However, there are other options (like multi-out mixer plus multi in interface, or standalone mic preamps plus interface with 4 inputs, etc). I have little experience using these however so I really cannot say much about which one(s) to get. The two mentioned above both have four mic preamps, but they are by no means the only way to do it.
The cheapest solution I can think of is to get a second 1204USB, plug it in, and in OS X create an Aggregate device (=the two are being merged into 'one virtual' interface with two discrete stereo (= four discrete mono) inputs. Disadvantage: you keep the same (limited) soundquality of the 16 bits convertors. Getting any of the interfaces mentioned earlier will also mean you'll make the significant step up from 16 to 24 bits sound.

Cannot adjust brightness on R61 with Windows7

I installed windows7 build 7100 and then cannot adjust the monitor's brightness. Can some one help? Thanks.

Had the same issue with the installed driver. I upgraded to nVidia 190.15 (beta - modified by Guru3D ) and now works fine. In case you need WHQL, try the latest stable driver from the same site (modified inf to work on mobile/quadro cards)

Premiere Elements 13 (not Pro), recorded a video with mono mic input (left channel only), need to create 2-channel (left and right) audio track for finished product. Help?

The question says it all. I have been all over the tutorials as well as the menus inside Premiere 13 and cannot find how to edit the audio track beyond basic balance, volume, etc.
I can see the Audio 1 track, shows audio in left channel only, but it will not respond to attempts to select, cut/copy, paste, etc.
Basically I just want to turn one-channel audio into two-channel audio.

Sure you do not want to give the Fill Left and Fill Right another try?
According to the Adobe document Adobe Premiere Elements Help | Effects reference
Fill Left, Fill Right
The Fill Left effect duplicates the left channel information of the audio clip and places it in the right channel, discarding the original clip’s right channel information. The Fill Right effect duplicates the right channel information and places it in the left channel, discarding the existing left channel information. For example, you might use this effect on footage shot with a monaural microphone plugged into only one channel of a camcorder, extending the voice of a speaker from one channel to both.
From what you wrote, your Premiere Pro video seems to be saying the same.
If that Premiere Elements Fill Left or Fill Right is no go, you might want to explore what you can do in this regard using the free audio editor Audacity.
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
And, then import the Audacity edited audio back into Premiere Elements project as source media.
Is the speaker system OK?
We will be watching for your results.

I cannot adjust my volume level

I'm really hoping that someone out there has an answer for this one. I just bought an ipod nano yesterday and excitedly added songs today, however, I discovered that I can't change the volume level. I can play the songs and adjust the scroll bar in the volume control screen but the volume does not change at all. I've searched various forums for volume control solutions but the only topic I can find involves setting the maximum volume control, I can't find any answers to simply being able to change the volume on a currently playing song. I even tried restoring my ipod, that didn't fix the problem. I'd really appreciate any suggestions you might have!

I had the exact same thing happen on my 2 day old nano! Using the scroll wheel to adjust the volume only resulted in the volume (and volume bar) going down for a sec and then going right back up to the orginal volume. I reset my nano and it seems to have solved the problem.
To reset your iPod:
1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
2. Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
After I did this it worked fine!

Cannot Adjust Recording Volume (XFI Elite P

Hello, I'm having trouble with my XFI Elite Pro. Whenever I go to record something and I select the device I want to use the volume knob automatically goes down to the third line. If i turn to turn it up or down it automatically shots back down there instantly. The playback knobs all work fine its only the recording ones and its every device I have that does it. Has anyone ever had this problem? I tried updating to the newest driver/firmware but it didn't change anything. Thanks in advance!

Melvoidium,
I've received many direct communications recently, but don't
know if one of them was you, using a "real name", or if you are
still looking for a way to contact me privately. Assuming you are
still looking, a few notes are worthy of passing along.
1) I don't frequent the forums as much as I used to, but

Community Experts who were among the very first MVP's - and others
as well - who can help when I'm not around. So please, consider
using these User Forums as your first choice in asking questions.
You will get answers, and those answers can be shared with others
when the conversation takes place here.
2) That said, thank you for the vote of confidence in asking
how to reach me. If you really feel it is in your own and others
best interests to communicate one-on-one, you can contact me by
clicking my pseudonym, "CatBandit" in the left column on this or

Can't get Audigy 4 to record audio with Cubase SX

I'm trying to record at home with a mic, Audigy 4 (non-pro) and Cubase 3 SX. Mic is pluged without preamp or mixer directly in the mic (not LineIn).
I have choosen the Creative ASIO Driver in Cubase.
My 2 Problems are:
1. I always here the mic directly in the speakers (direct passthough / monitoring). When I mute the mic in the xp mixer (playback setting) then I don't get any audio recorded. But I want to have the "wet" signal from Cubase in my speakers/headphones (e.g. with reverb, chorus, eq etc.). Usinge the cubase "direct Monitoring" asio checkbox or the monitoring button for the track doesn't change anything.
2. I always get the all other playing tracks on the recording tracks, seems like I always record a kind of what-you-here channel.
Is there anyone using a Audigy 4 with Cubase 3 and direct mic-input without mixer/preamp successfully? And if yes, would you please post or send me your configuration
a. from the xp controlpannel (playing and recording settings),
b. from the creative suround mixer,
c. from cubase ASIO setup and
d. the choosen in and out connections in cubase (where you connect the in and out ASIO channels...)
I'm getting mad at this ...
Regards
Pest

Sorry that still doesn't work.
I don't have a Mic L/R VST-Input (only 14 items, no #15 and #16 (as on your other post: "ASIO inputs 15 and 16 come from the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 eX Drive Line In 1/Mic In stereo input;"), see left panel on the pic, german names ...). There IS a difference between Audigy 2 ZX and Audigy 4? None of the 14 ADIO Inputs seems to work (no signal)
And about the small speaker icon (Monitor) in Cubase: doesn't work! If I mute the Mic in the XP "playing" mixer I don't get any mic input at all. But shouldn't all mixer settings be ignored by the ASIO driver? I'm still confused about that - and still got no solution.
Any more ideas? Someone ever tried a similar configuration or could verify / test this for me?

Cannot adjust the screen brightnes on V15 Nitro Black edition

I have Acer Aspire V15 Nitro, and I cannot adjust the screen brightness with the <Fn>+<Left> or <Fn>+<Right> key anymore. Not even in power options. Like it's somehow locked at one brightnes position. Doesn't change when it's on battery regardless of what's being specified in power options... Any ideas? Thanks

Record Level Adjust for Audio in Voice Memo or Video Recorder

I would like to request that Apple allow me to adjust the record audio volume level when recording in Voice Memo or Video Recorder modes. Often I find that the audio is distorting and most times I cannot step back far enough to avoid distortion levels. While I love the ability to SEE the audio level in Voice Memo mode, I am hoping that it is only a matter of firmware upgrade to be able to ADJUST the record level.
Also, if it is possible, it would be great to see some indication of audio level when recording video... something simple like a bar graph with green, yellow and red bars with the highest level reached sticking for a few seconds so that I can tell what the level is.
An alternate solution (if none of the above is possible in a firmware update) would be to automatically adjust the recording level to prevent audio distortion.
Thanks for the great iPod and here's hoping for a great firmware update in the near future!

Thanks, I've submitted my recommendation to Apple.

I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic. And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4. However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic. And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine. I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers. However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic. I just get barely audible static. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
Thanks!

How to record an audio clip in Premiere Pro cc with USB mic on PC

Hey All,
Having trouble finding a solution on the web. I have just made the switch to Premiere Pro CC from Final Cut Pro 7, and also from Mac to PC, yikes I know. I am looking to record some audio clips directly into PP with my USB mic. I have successfully hooked up my usb mic through the PC control panel. My ignorance will be apparent here, What should I do next in Premiere Pro to begin recording my clips?

How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio form garageband be apart of the video when recording, meaning the audio from garageband and echo and not just your normal voice for youtube post?its not add the garageband audio its just normal voice from mic no effects is going thru?

Hi Life93,
What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)
See this thread on how to remove the audio from a clip in iMovie -

MSI 975X with Realtek HD drivers - cannot adjust recordin levels, stereo mix gra

Called MSI and they could not help me.
Have XP and 975X Power up board. I know there is a shortcoming in the Realtek software drivers as per what I read on Google. Have not found a fix, wonder if others have.
Recording Sliders (volume) are grayed out and not move-able (locked) for recording volume for anything except Master Volume.
Cannot adjust line-in volume or stereo mix for recording.
Ideas without putting in a 3rd party card?
Thought I had this working once but perhaps I never did.
Tried uninstall, reinstall, safe mode install, old drivers, new drivers, blowing away drivers, every checkbox under the sun. Thought I found a registry fix somewhere but I cannot find now.
Thanks so much
Peter

Hello Peter,

Recording Sliders (volume) are grayed out and not move-able (locked) for recording volume for anything except Master Volume.
This does not have anything to do with your mainboard. It is basically a limitation of the Realtek Sound Drivers for Windows XP. Google "Realtek Mixer XP" and look at the images you find. No individual recording sliders to be seen, no matter what board. Here is an ASUS Example Screenshot:
If you need to adjust microphone input volume, go to the Playback part of the mixer and scroll it to the right using the <> buttons until you find a slider for the jack you microphone is plugged in (compare picture above, I don't have an MSI Screenshot at hand). You can enable microphone boost here and adjust the input volume. The same is true for Line-In.
In case of microphone problems, make sure you microphone is calibrated. There is an application in the Realtek installation folders called "miccal.exe". Run it to calibrate your microphone.

Adjusting the input level of my laptop mic in LE?

I tried making a recording using the laptop mic, but I can't adjust the input level - tried doing it from the preferences in the "sound" of my laptop, but it won't adjust levels in LE? Any help?

If a proper license is held for the product, MS do say that you can use any legitimately-acquired media to re-install.
If the computer originally shipped with a manufacturer-supplied copy of Windows (OEM), then only the media from the OEM should be used. This might require him to purchase a set of recovery discs or USB from the OEM.
It may be possible to retrieve/download a copy of Windows 8.0 or 8.1 from the MS website, with only a product key, but, it is common for modern computers sold now, that there is no visible product key (instead, the key is stored in firmware)
If you need to download Windows 8.1, to create installation media, this article may help:
