AA 2.0...Volume kicks in louder when a track is armed to record.

Using Asio driver with a hercules sound card. No increase on level inputs but the volume is louder on head phones and speakers when a track is armed to record. The recording is normal. Anyone run across this ? Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your responses. The Hercules sound card has done me good for quite a long time now. It has an external box with a mic input rca in/outs headphone jack and so on. It seems to have some noise on it now & then so it’s time for an upgrade. There’s a lot out there to choose from, just don’t know which one yet.

Perhaps you have direct hardware monitoring active and arming a track turns on software monitoring. Use one or the other.

(Maybe you'd be better off with an audio interface actually designed for recording.)
 
Does your sound card have recording and playback mixers like Sound Blaster rubbish used to? If so, check that you don't have a couple of channels both enabled for playback--maybe "mic in" and "what you hear" or any of an infinite number of combinations that would playback your recording mic twice.

But I agree--your sound card is totally unsuitable for any form of serious recording.
