Incoming ichat convo very quiet

Hey Guys,
Just trying to get a podcast going in GB3. Myself and a buddy are audio chatting on ichat, except he comes in quiet on my end. I have to turn up my system volume to a good 3/4 of the way to hear him properly.
When trying to import into GB3 i hit the record button, the import ichat convo window comes up and we each get a track... but i am on both tracks... and so is he... but he is very very quiet. Now if we could get eachother on seperate tracks (like i thought would happen) i could probally boost the track volume of his track to make his volume slightly louder, but chances are it will be still on the quiet side.
He is using a usb mic and i am using a line mic through a small mixer. We are both on powermac G5s.
Basically how can i boost his volume on my end and how can we be on 2 seperate tracks in sound as well as the screen?
Thanks in advance
Ryan

all the volumes are cranked on his end... and its still coming in quiet in garageband on my end... and its still doubling the voice tracks on each indivisual tracks.
he trid on his garageband on his end (GB2) and its coming in loud and as it should....
anyone have any ideas?

  • My incoming calls are very quiet

    Just got an iPhone and noticed that my incoming/outgoing calls are really quiet. My 'ringer' is turned up to the max, but don't where to look or what to change. Need help please.

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, did you mean the analog phone connected on your SPA is not ringing when there's an incoming call ? If your answer is yes , try changing the analog phone connected to it to isolate the problem properly. In some cases , you will be needing to change the ring wave form on the SPA just like the one stated here

  • 6230i suddenly started playing ringtone very quiet...

    Hi,
    I've got an MP3 ringtone, which used to work fine. All of a sudden, it's started playing very quietly for the first couple of seconds, and then gradually getting louder.
    I've got it set to maximum volume (5) and the "incoming call alert" to Ringing.
    Any idea how to get it back to ringing with some volume.

  • I am a long-term user of Lightroom as a standalone product with a perpetual licence. As a retired person on limited income, it is very disappointing to me that Adobe have introduced the 'Creative Cloud' (CC) subscription service in order for me to be able

    I am a long-term user of Lightroom as a standalone product with a perpetual licence. As a retired person on limited income, it is very disappointing to me that Adobe have introduced the 'Creative Cloud' (CC) subscription service in order for me to be able to continue upgrading this excellent product. It will be for me too expensive at the minimum cost of £9 per month. The additional services that CC brings are personally of no relevance or usefulness. Adobe should be prepared to support existing users who are, like myself, non commercial, amateur photographers by giving them the simple opportunity to upgrade to Lightroom 6 as a standalone, perpetual licence product. As a member of a camera club I know my co-members who use Lightroom are equally disappointed by this move to a subscription-only service.

    That is possible, John, but it is only speculation on your part. Might, not will.

    There is a "Lightroom 6" upgrade available for US $79 if you have a valid license for any of the earlier versions. From what I can tell, the only difference between Lightroom 6 Full, Lightroom 6 Upgrade and LightroomCC is in the license. The download file is the same.
    Other differences - with CC you get LrMobile/LrWeb and they throw in a free copy of Photoshop too.
    Yes, but when I bought my standalone license and clicked on the "Download" button it took me to the LightroomCC page. The downloaded file is named Lightroom 6, but in the CC app the installed program is LightroomCC (2015).

  • Bluetooth iPhone 4s car stereo very quiet

    Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone could help me with an audio problem. Sometimes when I connect by iPhone 4s to my car stereo via Bluetooth, the audio is very quiet. Even with my volume turned all the way up on my phone and car stereo. Then other times ill connect them and it'll play normal and very loud. And way to fix this so it's loud all the time?-(when's it's quiet I turn it all the way up and it's still like background noise...)
    TIA

    I have the same problem with my iPhone 5S in my Subaru.  Until someone can offer a fix, I am resorting to using FM, only.

  • [solved] Sound very quiet

    Sorry, already solved.
    "amixer set Front unmute 100%" fixed the problem. Strangely enough, i muted and unmuted each and every playback device via alsamixer many times.
    If you have similar problems try these three commands:
    amixer set Master unmute 80%
    amixer set Front unmute 100%
    amixer set Headphone unmute 100%
    Hello,
    my sound is very very quiet. To hear something I have to turn my amplifier up to at least 1/2 volume. At that volume level it would usually be enough to be wake the neighbourhood.
    I checked with alsamixer if the sound output was muted but it isn't. What's strange is that the sound output worked just fine today but a restart suddenly the sound was very quiet like this.
    Any ideas what's causing this?
    Mainboard is MSI H55M-ED55 with sound chip ALC889.

  • Very Quiet Audio During Playback

    Hi,
    Just trying out my iPod 5G and an Apple AV cable.
    Video is fine but audio is very very quiet. Have to have the iPod set to virtually full volume and TV up to about 50 (normal volume on TV is 12-15) to get anything like listenable audio.
    The videos are fine through headphones with sound when volume is set to approx 25%.
    I am using Handbrake on the Mac to encode into MPEG-4 format.
    Any ideas ???

  • Sound is very quiet !

    Hi
    I recently bought a zen mp3 from 32 GB
    but now I've put some songs on it and the sound is very quiet, even when I put it on 25 !
    my brother has a zen mp3 of 8 GB and his sound is very loud at 25.
    Does anyone knows how i can get the songs to play louder?
    thanks
    sjesches

    Hi,
    I had a similar problem with my ZEN, the sound was just too low for my requirements as I listen to it a lot along busy roads where there is a lot of noise. I assume that you have the European firmware on your ZEN, check it, the European firmware ends in an "e". If so, you might try downloading and installing the US firmware which you can download from the US site. Download the US firmware first before throwing out the European firmware, then install the US firmware. This is much louder than the Euopean firmware, I believe this is because in Europe the authorities want to protect their young people from ruining their hearing and therefore restrict the volume of players.
    Now that I have the US firmware on my ZEN I have no problem with the sound anymore.
    Have fun with your player!

  • MSI-180: Radio is very quiet

    Hello
    I have the following problem with my MSI-180: The volume of the radio is very quiet. The volume level is much lower than for all other devices (like DVD, TV, etc). Even setting the volume of the Mixer in Windows to max is not enough to ajust the different volumes.
    Is there any possibility to arise the radio volume (registry, etc.)?
    Thanks for your help

    Picture Quality
    Composite -ok
    S-Video - good
    Component RGB - very good
    VGA - better
    DVI - best
    so S-Video will not give you the best picture quality. it has nothing to do with the drivers.
    how does the picture look on your VGA/DVI monitor?

  • My guitar is very quiet when trying to record? How can I make it louder?

    I just got a new iMac and am using GarageBand to record some guitar and it is very quiet even with everything maxed out (gain and volume on focusrite saffire pro 14, track and master volume, and amp sim volume). Is there anyway to make it louder? Chain is Fender Deluxe Lone Star Strat > Saffire Pro 14 > FireWire cord> iMac. Thank you.

    Hi The App,
    When you're plugged in, does the light that says "Inst" light up on the PRO 14?  This indicates an instrument level input, and can be activated through Saffire Mix Control.  Near the bottom of the window, make sure the channel your guitar is coming in through has "Inst" selected, rather than "line" (also make sure you turn down the gain before you do this).  Let me know if this solves your issue.
    Best Regards,

  • Voice Recordings come out muffled and very quiet.

    The first few songs I made with my friends are clear and you can hear the voice perfectly and loudly. Now when I try to record voice its muffled and very very quiet no matter what. I've tried different voices, recording levels, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone know how to fix this? I don't think it's the mic because I can web chat fine.

    Are you talking about the iPod speaker? If so, does it work OK with headphones?
    There isn't much that you can do yourself to repair the iPod if there is damage inside.

  • A new Mac Mini seems to have a very quiet constant squeaking sound, is this normal?

    Hi everyone,
    I just purchased a brand new Mac Mini (i5) yesterday, and today in my very quiet room noticed that there is a very quiet squeeking sound coming from the unit (I believe it is near the front of the machine, opposite where the ports are). It is constant and changes pitch very slightly - but when there is a chirping noise from the hard-drive doing work, I think it stops then comes back straight after.
    Any idea's if this is a problem and if I should be worried? It's just a bit annoying.
    I have the latest 2013 i5 model.
    Thanks everyone,
    John.

    If you purchased the full AppleCare service support extended plan with automatic enrollment with the Mini computer, and you get a new one (or refurbished) ask that the Plan coverage be moved to the replacement Mac. Or refunded if you choose to wait & want to re-think your next product. They may be able to re-credit your method of payment, if a credit card.
    I usually read through the product support discussion forums to see what the patterns of issues are, since that may be an indicator of a sort within a narrow specific build series model & sub-year version; and am watchful of graphic card problems in models where the parts may be difficult or costly to replace, if at all, later on.
    At least with a Mini, you can choose several display adapters and hope to get a good match with whatever kind of display or digital TV you may wish to try & use as a screen. Some don't do all that well, & others do better.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Realtek ALC888 (OSS Mixer) Very Quiet

    xfce4-mixer says I am using "Realtek ALC888 (OSS Mixer)" and the speakers and mic work, but the speakers are VERY quiet. I can't hear well enough to make a phone call with Skype. So I tried this:
    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfc … ew_Xfce4.6
    and it's not any better (I rebooted after I did that just to be sure). I have the volume on the physical speakers on 100% and xfce4-mixer also set to 100%.
    I know that these speakers are actually pretty loud because other distros were LOUD.
    Any suggestions how to debug this?
    Thanks.

    To clarify, I don't actually care if I use oss or alsa or a
    kerosene-powered dust buster. I just want to be able to hear youtube and
    Skype normally. And the problem isn't just Skype--also youtube is very
    quiet.
    I removed oss and alsa was still there. Or it claimed to be. I rebooted
    but amixer and alsaconf were 'command not found'
    I installed oss again and soundon gave a crazy output about conflicting
    drivers. So I rebooted. When I now click on my Xfce mixer panel addon it says
    GStreamer was unable to detect any sound devices. Some sound system
    specific GStreamer packages may be missing. It may also be a permissions
    problem.
    So I added myself (once again) to the audio group and installed oss again. Now I see this:
