Wavosaur

I'm new to Wavosaur so I'll apologise now if I'm being stupid. I’m using Windows XP Pro SP3 if that helps.

Firstly, I like what I've seen and have successfully edited some existing files.

Now I’m stumped. I want to record.

The Audio Configuration screen shows only ‘Realtek AC97 Audio’ in the in and out fields; ASIO is not checkmarked.

Two questions:
1) How do I select input channels e.g. Mic, Line, CD, etc, or does the system default to the soundcard output?
2) Where and how do I control the recording levels?

The input VU meter sits at about -23 but jittering slightly. When I trigger a sound effect there is a slight response on the VU displays. Recording does work but playback is extremely low – barely detectable.

Can anyone please give me a push to get me going?

Thanks, in anticipation.

Open Wavosaur and click 'Monitor input with VU meter'.

Open your computer's Control Panel >Sounds and Audio Devices.

On the Audio tab there should be a section titled 'Sound recording'. Click the Volume button, select an input, and adjust input level.

Hi ChairmanOfTheBored,

Thanks for the reply. I'd tried the Windows audio settings and found no changes necessary (I have been using Audacity without problem).

This morning I was on the verge of giving up when I decided to re-download Wavosaur. Well, it worked this time. I have absolutely no idea why.

Thanks again for your support.

I'd still like an independent audio-in level control though.

When I started using Wavosaur I spent quite a while looking for the input level control. Seconding this as a feature request.

I imagine the omission is due to Wavosaur's focus being on audio editing.(?)
