onboard audio and REW

[jwhite8086]

Is REW supposed to work with Soundmax onboard audio line input. I did the first step today and ran the loop back from front sp to line in, the input level was turned all the way up but only got -97db so I connected to the mike input with mike boost on . I forget what it said I think it was inacurate waveform error ,and the setup did not complete.

Can you show us a picture of the Windows playback and record mixer settings (unless you have Vista)..

You can't use the mic input. It must be line-out to line-in.

Also remember that those plugs are stereo and so you must use a stereo plug that breaks the two left and right channels out so you can connect the right or left channel in the loop.

line out or front speaker out. I dont think I have a line out

Front speaker out is fine.

I figured it out, the jack auto sensing did not see the input so i checked tha auto aenseing box and it was activated. Now I can start measurements, if only my onboard audio wasent so noisy.
