You can set your recording levels in your control panel then use gain after you
record. I prefer this method over using amplification as I have more control
over it and can make small changes as I need to make them without the
possibility of effecting my recording. I set my mic levels lower than probably
most folks do so that I can increase them through gain. This helps me aleviate
the background noise which is produced by the room that I record in. Even
though I do use & recommend a dynamic mic, you're still going to get some
background noise especially if you've your mic settings cranked up.

Hi all.
Some tape recorders had a visible thing that went in to the red when your
recording level was too loud and it would create distortion. I understand that
Audacity has the same, though this is unusable for people with screen readers.
Is there any way we can get round this? Can you set Audacity to always
record consistently regarding the sound and noise level?
We can hear the difference base, treble, pitch, speed etc. makes to a
recording However we can't hear what Normalise or leveler might do. It seems
these are more visual things for some kind of effect? I appreciate there is
more to it, but could anyone please simplify?
I just want to make recordings that have a set standard sound quality and
the same level of volume.
Using Windows xp with Jaws 13.
Interested to hear what you think.
Ron
