Bit of a noob question here:
I bought a Sony PS- LX 300 USB turntable- it has a pre amp integrated into it. Not looking for perfect sound or anything and just wanted to avoid the hassle of connecting up my whole stereo system.
Sadly the sound levels are very low coming into the PC. I use audacity and have it on maximum recording volume and also appear to have all my settings on the PC to maximum.
Obviously with audacity there is the ability to increase the volume once you have recorded the track. I just wondered whether that would produce the same end result as if the volume was already higher coming into the PC or whether something gets lost by increasing volume at a later date.
Also in case I have missed something on my systems settings and anyone who has used a similar thing I'd welcome any tips for getting the volume higher going into the PC.
