Hey ive just bought a new mixer off ebay 8 channels ive set it up and plugged the 2 outputs from the mixer left and right into an adapter that turns it into the small jack for the microphone input in my sound card for the computer.
when i record onto the computer the sound is really quite and there is alot of hissing in the background.
I was thinking that this is cause its a powerd mixer and there is power going down the output lines into the soundcard and its not liking it and if so is there anyway to fix it.
thanx guys Tom

The output from the mixer will be line level and so needs to go into the line in on your soundcard.
