Laptop Headphone-Out Recording

Greetings,

I've done a couple searches and came up with ever more questions.

I own an Asus 901 netbook ( no pc ) and are unhappy with the low volume of my analog MD recordings from the headphone jack (especially from internet radio)

Even with my netbook at full volume...

Is there an limit on how loud I can record? ( sound quality is not a huge factor, I use these recordings later through a portable speaker and bring them to the gym. If i plug my ipod into it, it sounds MUCH louder, but who wants to use an iPod?)

If so, would purchasing a usb soundcard help amplify the output so my md recordings are louder?

Any other suggestions are welcome, thanks!

Hmmm what Md are you using , and Do you have the recording level set to Auto Level by chance ??

Manual level , will allow you to adjust dramatically the capture volume , on the MD .. check the Menu , for a Sony , early models were this procedure

Press and Hold Pause button , then while holding Pause Press Rec , Keep rec pressed for 2 seconds , and it should switch to "Manual Rec Level"

Then the FFW /RRW button become Rec level control .

Check your Owners manual or go here to find your MD , and download it .
