hello,
thanks for all the answers.
for those who gave advice with main mixer, 'sorry I wasn't that clear. but
mixer's input gain was max. and it was only half on the meter. then
boosting mixer's channel/master only made my sound horribly distorted.
it seems that getting soundcard is a good option as I understand that
clemen's explanation on headphone jack out problem. (btw, I never, ever saw
a lap top computer with line out. does it really exist or you mean a
desktop pc with some tweaks?)
this looks quite nice...as it's preamp AND soundcard...if soundcard doesn't
make my signal louder, then I can use it as preamp..if I got it right.

does anyone used this with ubuntu 13.10 on modern laptops? a quick web
search shows that it *can* work but have no drivers. 'seems that some
people has troubles with it.
