[linux-audio-user] Getting USB Audio Quattro to work

by Denis de Leeuw Duarte

Hello! Somebody told me a few of you have managed to get M-Audio's USB Audio Quattro to work. I'd like to join your ranks, but I'm having a small problem. By the looks of things the USB settings are all correct and the ALSA (0.9.3) kernel module loads like it should, but the alsasound script gives me a peculiar message: Starting sound driver: snd-usb-audio done No state is present for card tm It then automatically writes a new asound.state file containing only this: state.tm{ } I don't know if this is good or bad or unimportant, but nonetheless, I don't hear anything when playing back sounds. I found the .asoundrc file for the Quattro by Patrick Shirkey somewhere and I saved it to my own .asoundrc. Here is what some of the aplay commands output: This actually _looks_ good, but I can't hear sound: denis@denlap denis $ aplay /usr/kde/3.1/share/sounds/pop.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/kde/3.1/share/sounds/pop.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono Here I tried to use the device names from the asoundrc file, but then I get an error: denis@denlap denis $ aplay -D quattro1 /usr/kde/3.1/share/sounds/pop.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/kde/3.1/share/sounds/pop.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono aplay: set_params:810: Channels count non available So, my question is, what am I doing wrong? Did I take all the necessary steps? Is there a way do get more diagnostics? I hope you can answer my questions, because this thing is pretty expensive for a paperweight ;-) Regards, Denis p.s. if you need more info, let me know. Just to be on the safe side, here's a few of my files. Note that the device is named 'tm' which is (i think) because of the (tm) in the descriptor. I really don't know how all of this wors though, so educate me please.

by Daniel James

Hello Sweep users, Conrad is looking for help with testing the new ALSA 0.9x support in version 0.82. You have to enable ALSA support at ./configure time.

[linux-audio-user] Re: tkeca recording more than four channels?

by Daniel James

> These four channels in Recording Properties mean a quadraphonic > audio file (not too common). The usual is 1 or 2 (stereo) channels > files. Thanks for the quick reply! We're using an M Audio Delta 1010 which has eight analogue simultaneous inputs and outputs. We're trying to record a four piece band live, so that each player has an independent stereo track. After that, we can overdub with more takes to give us 16 tracks and more. We are using ALSA 0.92 and the envy24control mixer/router, and it's working really well with Audacity with up to four input channels. The multichannel support in Audacity is experimental, and so far it isn't scaling well (on our system) to eight inputs. We wanted to try another multitracker for Linux to find out where the problem lies - so we thought of the venerable ecasound. tkeca looked like it could be a great front-end for this job, because it looks to be very light on resources. Cheers Daniel

[linux-audio-user] tkeca recording more than four channels?

by Daniel James

Hi Luis, Is it possible to record more than four channels per track with tkeca, and have the sound in each channel remain as an independent files? In the recording properties dialog, I can only see up to four channels available, but is there another way of doing this? Thanks for creating it! Daniel

[linux-audio-user] Mandrake 9.1 kernel problem

by Daniel James

Anyone else had problems installing Mandrake 9.1, like the installer not being able to see the CD-ROM it was just loaded into memory from, with lots of DriveReady SeekComplete errors in the console? I've seen this on one machine, but not another. Does anyone know if the 9.1 multimedia kernel includes this patch? http://lists.insecure.org/lists/linux-kernel/2003/Feb/1085.html I wish Mandrake hadn't shipped with a pre-release kernel. Cheers Daniel

[linux-audio-user] Portable USB disk recorder?

by Juhana Sadeharju

Hello. Would any of you know if anyone manufactures a portable USB disk recorder? It needs to work as standard USB disk so that I may freely use it in any Linux and in any MS Windows 2000/XP. Below is what I have found so far: Creative, Nomad Jukebox, http://www.nomadworld.com -Good but requires a proprietary driver Archos, Jukebox Recorder 20, http://www.archos.com/ -Records only mp3 and at rate 160 kbps I don't understand why Creative always make their products too complicated: SB Live, Jukebox and all. What's wrong in them? OK, I have waited several years for a portable hard disk recorder to be used in my free sound library project, and it looks like I never get such a recorder. I don't have money to buy an expensive portable DAT recorder. Are there other options? Help. Best regards, Juhana

[linux-audio-user] JACK 0.71.1 released

by Taybin

JACK 0.71.1 JACK is a low-latency audio server, written primarily for the GNU/Linux operating system. It can connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves. Its clients can run in their own processes (ie. as normal applications), or can they can run within the JACK server (ie. as a "plugin"). JACK is different from other audio server efforts in that it has been designed from the ground up to be suitable for professional audio work. This means that it focuses on two key areas: synchronous execution of all clients, and low latency operation. **CHANGES** * fltk macros/detection from bob ham * tmpdir configure-time patch from jesse chappell * socket error handling change (with additional graph sort!) from stephane letz * xrun init patch from gunter geiger Taybin Rutkin
