The thing is, that the gain has to come from somewhere, and it seems
as though the Delta44 does a better job of it than my mic preamps.
I'll test this more thouroghly, but this is why it is so great to
be able to adjust this.  If I have a hot signal comming in, I can
lower the analog gain, acheiving a cleaner signal.

I suppose it is about time that I give this a try.  I have a fair 
ability with C, and I have written some "hello world" buttons in GTK.
It will be quite a challenge.  I imagine that I can get some help 
by looking at what you did to amixer.
