Audigy 4 - mic

Audigy 4 - mic

[Peter Zubaj]

Hi,

Audigy 4 uses different Mic capture way as others Audigy. In source
there is note "Mic input not tested.". Why this is not done old way ?
I know one person who has problem with this. Old way worked fine for
him. I can not test (I don't have this card).

It is a bug. I will be fixed at some point.

Please try following the wiki entry:
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=audigy4capture

The reason it is done a new way is that it uses a higher quality ADC.

It works here on a SB0610 version of the Audigy 4.

Hi,

You are still creating "AMic Playback Volume" and "Mic Capture Volume"
in DSP program for Audigy 4. If I look correctly on source, there is
only "Mic Capture Volume" for Audigy 4 and not "Mic Playback Volume".

Old way was done in way how windows drivers worked. I do not know if
they use this way today.

Who cares if mic goes through AC97, most of users use only cheap mic for
voip.

If you don't change Audigy 1 driver part, then I don't care.

The Audigy 1 has not been changed. I don't think that the Audigy 1 has 
the option for this higher quality line-in/mic capture path so the 
higher quality line-in/mic capture is only enabled on cards that have 
been verified to work well with it.
I don't really understand what the problem is that you have. Do you 
simply want mixer controls renamed or something?
