Chris,

Would you enlightened us? I know this is a fundamental setting, but I
too experience the low levels and I don't quite know what I should do
in my audio editor (Sony's Sound Forge Audio Studio) to make my meters
agree. Is there a default setting that I can set for both my recorder
and PC?

Many thanks.

Tom
