    Yeah, I will tell you what I have so it helps, I have the BM Toner 700 which the XLR cable(or something) plugs into my InnoGear Phantom Power I229, which that leads to an xlr cable that leads to a 3.5mm jack which goes into a usb card that is my microphone hope that helps              

    The first place that the signal could potentially be turned down is in the usb card - rather depending upon what it is. Need a bit more information about that too. But, if it's the little one that comes with the mic, then it doesn't have a gain control...

    It's not a silly question, but without knowing what mic and preamp you are using, we don't have the faintest clue!

    The answer is 'by using the mic gain control', but I'm sure that you can see why, on its own, this isn't going to be much help...
