Re: Reducing noise in digital recordings

If the problem is the pre-amp, would the noise be less noticable if the
pre-amp was sending a stronger signal to the computer? Is cranking up the
gain almost to full increasing the noise that might otherwise not occur with
a stronger signal from another pre-amp to the PC?

The spec on this is so useless that I can't tell how many dB of gain that
is.

I suspect you simply need a quieter mic pre.
