Yes, very impressive. Thanks Emanoil.
One very important issue for people to use the microphone is the input
gain setting, ie. Mic Boost. If not set, the microphone will "not work"
under Linux. Anyone knows how to easily set it up?
$ amixer | grep -A6 Boost
Simple mixer control 'Front Mic Boost',0
Capabilities: volume
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: 0 - 3
Front Left: 0 [0%]
Front Right: 0 [0%]
