Re: Noob need help with microphone
If your using jack you wont be using alsa2jack for the mic. jack accesses it directly.
alsa2jack is only for oruting audio from an alsa program to jack and vice versa.
jack provides capture ports, on my internal soundcard i have both front and rear mic inputs, you need to select which source you want from alsa mixer.
If you right click in volume control and go to settings it will bring up alsa mxier. p[ress f4 for capture settingd.
scroll along to source and you can switch it between line and mic and front mic and CD
you will also have volume levels for the line/mic inputs aswel turn these down if you are getting mic coming out speakers when not using a jack program

Yes bazsound, the select between line and mic dit it and the mic sliders off.
Downsite is you can not set the mic volume ! I could not find a pre amp for mic.
Abusing now the clipping booster in carla to gain the mic.
Rude but i works , would not advice this for singing do

Re: Noob need help with microphone
If you are having problems with your settings try using alsamixer in a terminal. Sometimes GUI mixers do not show something that shows up in alsamixer.
If you need more help figuring it out post back here. (If you have never used this sort of thing, you just type
alsamixer
in a terminal, or type
man alsamixer
to get instructions)

Re: Noob need help with microphone
depending on which desktop enviroment you use you may have a different mixer, some use a gui which you can add/remove what controls show.
On my machine, volume control settings brings up alsamixer in a terminal, alsamixer always shows all controls.
If your using your soundcard there should be a mic volume plus a mic boost switch, there is also a level control for the capture port

Re: Noob need help with microphone
The mixer bypass jack, that sliders need to be down.Abusing the clipping booster as a preamp.
or use the AMS mixer plugin in catia for songs.
