[LAU] asoundrc

[Ben Edwards]

Hi, hope I am asking in the correct place here.

I have a Creative E-MU 0044 and it seems to work fine.

arecord -l gives me:

*/card 1: USB [E-MU 0404 | USB], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]/*
*/  Subdevices: 1/1/*
*/  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0/*

I seem to be able to record

*/$ arecord -t wav -r 44100 -c 2 -f S24_3LE -D hw:1,0 mon.wav/*

*/Recording WAVE 'mon.wav' : Signed 24 bit Little Endian in 3bytes, Rate 
44100 Hz, Stereo

/*I wish to use this card with darkice (internet audio streaming) but 
darkice doe not seem to like 24bit interface cards.

I believe that I can do something in .asoundrc (which I believe is a 
ALSA config file that sits in my home directory), to convert the 24bit 
device to a 16bit device.

I think I could setup a alsa device called e_mu_16 whitch would be the 
same as hw:1,0 but 16 bit.

Any help with this would be really appreciated.

Kind regards,
Ben
