Sound Card Voltage Levels

[john30120]

I have a Rockwell Riptide sound card in an HP6640C Pavilion computer. I need to use the "Line Output" to drive another device but I find the voltage level way below the expected 1 V P-P. Is there a jumper on the card that controls this? The output level seems more like 50 mV P-P. Is this typical for a Line Out Level or have they designed it to be microphone level compatible?

Thanks

Can't easily check the output of my SB Live at the moment, but I'd have expected more than 50mV... 500mV would be more like it I'd have thought. Not familiar with your card so can't comment on specs. Maybe the Rockwell site has the specs and jumper settings...?
