Thanks Chris,
The meters on both the FR2-LE and Audacity are similar. Most of the time a=
round -45 to -30db. I'd like to adjust it at recording time so that the pe=
aks would be around -12db but I'm already setting the volume control near t=
he max. Surprisingly, when amplified with Audacity by 20 to 24db, the bac=
kground hiss is barely audible at normal listening volume.
Still climbing the learning ladder,
Normand

What sort of levels do the FR-2LE meters read when you make the recording ?
Do the meters on your PC agree ?
