No bass, low record volumes

Effextc · 09-13-2003, 12:25 AM

When I record using my Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 sound card, I get low recording volume and low bass. It sound fine over the speakers while recording, but during playback the bass and volume disapate. I have cranked the bass and volume up on all my options, including the SB mixer, the windows sound control, even put the effects to Drum N Bass on the SB mixer.

I cannot figure out what the hell is the problem. If you have any ideas I would be more than willing to try them out.

Thanks!!!

P.S.

The bass and volume are just fine on the monitor speakers (shelf system).

what input are you using? and what are you recording from?

most of the effects and adjustments you played with only affect the output, not the inputs.

I am going from turntables to AMP on the mixer, from AMP on mixer to LINE IN on shelf system, from LINE OUT on shelf system to LINE IN on SB sound card.
