audio problems
 
I am using Hoster to run my show from a laptop, I use a mini jack connection out of the headphone socket and find that the computer output volume has to be set to full and also the gains on my mixeramp need to be turned right up and I still suffer with low volume. I have tried using a headphone pre-amp but struggle with uncontrolable heavy bass distortion, I shut off the bass on my desk and also on my graphic equalizer and still have this horrible sound.

Can you recommend maybe using a graphic plug-in or any other solution? :?

Make sure the Sound isn't MUTED.

Does your Sound Control Panel have a WAVE Control/Slider?

If so, set it to 100% or MAX.

If not, do you have an OPEN PCMCIA Card Slot avaliable?

If so, then you can buy a PCMCIA Sound Blaster® Audigy® 2 ZS Notebook for about $129.00.

Found the same card at this URL:
http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Creative...rt=price&used=
under MERCHANT=GATEWAY (Click on BASE PRICE to Sort on Price) for $99.00+a $30.00 Rebate. They show the PRICE after REBATE=$69.00

Try locating the "Lineout" jack instead of the headphone jack. Lineout has a greater range of output level than the headset jack does.

I had a similar problem with Volume on my laptop. I purchased a Soundblaster PCMCIA Sound Card. I have all the volume I need now. The sound is far superior to what I had before. The difference is amazing. Normally laptops are equipped with a low to moderate quality sound cards from the factory.

As I was writing this post I saw the one from nreel....this is the exact same sound card that I use. Paid right at $129
