Greetings: I am Rob from the Fostex forum. Look at this inquiry from my cooledit-using friend over on another site I frequent and let me know what you think. Seems to me he needs a preamp to control the signal. What do you think?

"I need help with adjusting levels.

My guitar (and me) go through a condenser mic into a mixer and into either the line-in or the mic plug in on my computer. I have a very normal soundcard. I get good results but I need to know what I'm doing more. My question is this: How do I adjust the volumes on a) The mixer, b) The computer's line in or mic control, such that I can get the best possible quality?

I use cool edit pro.

also, is it better to use the line-in, or the mic?"
