Control permissions and existance of ''/dev/dsp dsp1 dsp2'', dependently from how many audio cards you have.
Tri ''gom'' or ''aumix'' to control the mixer settings.

Control the mixer with alsamixer ( alsamixer -c1 in case of pulseaudio cadaver )

{{attachment:alsamixer-card-fullduplex.png}}

In alsamixer press the [tab] button on your keyboard to go to the input capture view:

{{attachment:alsamixer-capture-volumes-view-1.png}}

Don't put the capture volume at max or you will get poor quality audio, if your terminal supports colors keep it under the red bar :), in amixergui or thing like that keep the capture volume 2/3 of the max volume.

With the arrows you can cross the input channels, put the capture on the -mix- by pressing the space bar and then set the volumes of the outputs ( again [tab] to switch back to the outputs volumes views) as you wish.

If you plan to use a player like mplayer or audacious or xmms remember to set them to use Master as volume and not PCM otherwise with the music you will take down also mikes line-in cd and what-sallamadonna-not , best to set them on software volume control ( -softvol for mplayer )
