[Tech-Assist] A Puzzling Problem With My Webstream

[Kevin Trueblood]

Do you have anything else that is fed from the Belar?  Like air monitors?

Do the meters look normal?

If you plug headphones or speakers into the computer's soundcard output does 
it still sound the same way?  Or just on the stream?

If everything else is fine, could be one of two things:

1.  Bad sound card

2.  You might have lost an ampifier chip.  The output of the Belar I'm 
presuming is balanced, and I'm also presuming you're feeding an unbalanced 
computer soundcard?
