Input volume
I have been using Audacity satisfactorily with XP2. On my new computer, with Windows 7 (64 bit) and Audacity 1.3.12, it works, but I have to reduce the Mic input right down to 0.07 to avooid clipping. Have I missed something?

Re: Input volume
Go to the system mixer, click the Recording tab, select the mic, then right-click over it and hit Properties. Look for any "Boost" or "AGC" control and turn it off. On Windows 7, this control is often on the "Custom" tab after you hit Properties.alanwilm wrote:I have been using Audacity satisfactorily with XP2.
