I just got a UCA202 yesterday, and I'm using Windows XP. I am not able to control the line-in level on the UCA202, however.

Here is the device properties dialog which shows the Volume and Advanced buttons disabled for recording:

Here is the UCA202's playback properties dialog:

And here is the recording properties dialog, which shows nothing available:

In order to get the sound card calibration I have to set the output level on the sound card to near maximum since there is no way to adjust the input level.

Here is the resulting calibration graph:

Will this cause any problems, or am I good to go?

Thanks!

I downloaded the latest driver from Behringer's website, but still no input level adjustments are available.

I don't understand the driver you downloaded from the Behringer site for the UCA202.

You need to use the standard USB Windows drivers.

I did originally use the default Windows drivers, but there was no input level control available in the volume control properties. Then I also tried the driver from Behringer's website, and there is still no input level control either. I'm not even looking at REW, just looking at the Windows sound control dialogs and settings.

I would try and reload the standard Windows USB drivers and see what happens...

Yep, I'm about to do that.

But I also just realized I had my CM-140 set to the "50-100" range instead of "32-80", which lowers the output level from it. Switching it to 32-80 helped a lot, and I've actually been able to make some good readings that make sense.

Thanks for your help and quick replies!

I just found the same "no volume control" in the windows recording properties box after plugging in th UCA202 right out of the box and the USB device install telling me it was ready to use. This is on a Dell Lattitude laptop running XP SP2 or SP3.

Is there a rash of defective UCA202s that don't work right ?

From some other posts I've read, it looks like this is a Vista vs. XP driver issue. Vista allows input level control, while XP doesn't.
