You are correct Steve. I tried both and got the results you expected. Muddy audio when I was on Flat. But I changed the jumper in the radio back from Flat and it cleared the audio back up.
It didn't throw the audios but here is what I think happened.
During the initial install I setup from the web my conf files. And downloaded to machine when prompted. Setup
radio according to Allstar FAQ for de-emp audio on a moto.
Built the machine with usbradio.conf. I had really LOW audio and went in and cranked up the levels using tune-radio-menu.
Got it working. Then when I listened to the audio from the other end it had a stutter problem. It would start stuttering and then clear up. But the audio levels were low.
Went back to the web after asking a few about what I was experiencing and was told to use simpleusb.conf.
This cleared up my audio dramtically. BUT, she was too loud and over driving my radio now. No processing being done like usbradio.conf
does.
running tune-radio-menu gave me errors and I was not able to adjust them anymore.
Somehow missed in the manual that told me that I needed to run the simpleusb-tune-menu to adjust the audio.
Now that Tim shared the missed command, I can now setup the audio levels of the sound card. So far so peachy...
Except my Chinese radio and its DTMF isn't so good. and tends to drop the COS on the link radio.
Thanks for the help. I knew to use de-emp audio but tried FLAT just in case to eliminate anything I was missing. When posted I was just trying to get the levels down and fix the audio later as I knew that part was in the radio.

Isn't simpleusb for use with processed audio, not flat. Otherwise
you'd be sending other nodes your flat, i.e. non-de-emphasized
audio.
I would think the female voice would be somewhat muddy sounding as
it is not being pre-emhasized by the radio. Probably also throwing
off your levels as well.

Yes I am running Flat TX (Pin5)
The Radio is doing all the ENC/DEC
Running simpleusb.conf so there are no extra settings
for PL. I am downloading from the web my conf files. And I
think I may have a bad profile on the web so will be looking
into the conf files from the machine now.
I talked to Bob (W5EVH) and my audio got crummy after
10 mins of talking. So we are thinking its a bad Motorola or
a flaky one.
Tried Tim's recommendation and simpleusb-tune-menu
seems to have fixed her!
Thanks guys.

Re: [App_rpt-users] Female Voice too loud
Are you running your TX
audio to the flat input or mic input?
If you are running the
mic input and not relying on the PL encoder on the
radio and trying to send PL into the radio via
mic, this will cause problems.
Be sure to use the flat
TX input.. If not, then change the radio to encode
PL and turn the PL off on the URI side.

Try simpleusb-tune-menu

Is there a way to

audio perimiters?
Running simpleusb
setup. GM300. DMK.URI
No radio tune menu so
I can't adjust the audio in simpleusb
mode.
When running
radio-tune-menu
Error parsing
device parameters
Tried copying
txmixaset=500 perimeter into the
simpleusb.conf and no changes. Tried
changing to lower value no change.
CLI error on
simpleusb_tune_usb27978.conf
cp simpleusb.conf
simpleusb_tune_usb27987.conf and no
changes
doubled checked the
txmixaset=500 and added that again with
no change.
