Hello, I am trying to figure out what my Live 512 & alsa are capable of.
I have been trying to compare what I am seeing in the system with what I
have been able to find in literature and posts. I was wondering if
anyone might be able to offer any clarification. First of all, I am
trying to figure out what the different I/O I see are. In
/etc/asound/devices I see:
4: [0- 0]: hardware dependent
8: [0- 0]: raw midi
19: [0- 3]: digital audio playback This is digital mixer output?
18: [0- 2]: digital audio playback This is Synth or FX output?
26: [0- 2]: digital audio capture FX capture?
25: [0- 1]: digital audio capture Device 1?
16: [0- 0]: digital audio playback Is this the codec playback?
24: [0- 0]: digital audio capture Is this the codec capture?
0: [0- 0]: ctl
1: : sequencer
6: [0- 2]: hardware dependent
9: [0- 1]: raw midi
10: [0- 2]: raw midi Which midi devices are which?
What do the different numbers represent? subdevice: [card- device]: ?
This seems a bit reasonable but kind of contradicts the output I get
from aplay -l:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Live [SB Live [Unknown]], device 0: emu10k1 [ADC
Capture/Standard PCM Playback]
Subdevices: 32/32
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
...
Subdevice #31: subdevice #31
card 0: Live [SB Live [Unknown]], device 2: emu10k1 efx [Multichannel
Capture/PT Playback]
Subdevices: 8/8
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
...
Subdevice #7: subdevice #7
card 0: Live [SB Live [Unknown]], device 3: emu10k1 [Multichannel Playback]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Here it would seem that device 2 does not have a subdevice 26 as
suggested by my (perhaps wrong) interpretation of /proc/asound/devices
Thanks. -Garett
