+<h2>Microphone distortion on Thinkpad X220</h2>
+<h3>2025-04-27</h3>
+<h4>Trying to fix a bad microphone</h4>
+<p>The X220 has a notoriously bad internal microphone. It can be somewhat improved by making the input mono with module-remap-source<p>
+<p><b>/etc/modules-load.d/microphone.conf</b></p>
+<pre>
+# make micro mono
+module-remap-source master=alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo channels=1 master_channel_map=front-left channel_map=mono
+</pre>
+<p>Replace master= with your device, and master_channel_map= with the device's channel</p>
+<p>It's a bit better, although an external usb microphone is the real solution.</p>
