I am having a couple issues with audio recording that may or may not be related.
I am running G75VW-NS71 with latest BIOS version and audio drivers.
I am using a stereo microphone to record. It uses the audio input jack. However, the signal is somehow mixed down from stereo to mono before it reaches my sound recording program.
This happens before it reaches the VIA Audio deck, since adjusting the left or right mic volume knobs individually is functional. This would generally indicate a problem with the microphone, but the microphone works fine on other computers.
Second problem is there is a loud staticy hum in the background. This happens even when I power off the microphone The hum itself is in stereo.
Help?
