open the options menu at the recording control:

choose the +20dB booster

3. Way (only few cases apply):

Some Soundcards (even onboard Sound like AC 97) use itīs own program to control the win-soundsettings, sometimes this software displays a

small icon in the windows systray (right beside the windows clock), or this software runs in the backround of windows without a visible process in the taskmanager.

In this case one can start/configure the software and engange the +20db micboost.

If the icon is not available in the systray, you have to search for the control program by using the windows explorer:

search for: mixer.exe or sound.exe and open the program:

step 2:

select your external sound control by double click on the icon:

choose properties or options (might look different with diferent sound cards):

engage the booster:
