I've just taken delivery of a Tascam us 122. Being a newbie it is the first decent sound card that i've used. CAn anyone tell me why I have to have the nic volume completely up to get a decent recording level on the pc. Is there something that I could be doing wrong? or are these units quite quiet anyway. On the good side it's loads quieter (noise wise) than my old onboard sound card. I thought the headphone valume might have been a bit louder too. \perhaps i'm expecting too much. I'm using audition 1.5. Can anyone suggest anything??
