Hi guys,
I just thought I would mention, in case someone missed it. There are
some kind people who have started supplying RPMS for common applications
for various distributions.
PlanetCCRMA (http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/) being
the most well known I think (PlanetCCRMA is for Redhat though).
Now there are a few places for Mandrake users to go:
- http://rpm.nyvalls.se/sound9.0.html - which I have successfully used
to test new versions of both Ardour and MusE.
This site keeps _very_ up to date, keeps many of the applications I'm
interested in right now.
- http://www.esm.rochester.edu/kevine/turnkey/home.html - which I
haven't tried but looks promising.
Scope here is more towards completeness than having the newest of
everything, this is the feeling I get anyway.

Hi.
I have a Yamaha ymf740c and installed 0.9.0rc6 "the debian way." Audio
is working but can someone help me in setting up the mpu401?
Also, is there a doc describing module options? As a fairly newbie
"parm:mpu_port long array (min = 1, max = 8), description "MPU-401 Port."
(from modinfo and from the alsa web site) doesn't have any useful
meaning to me. I found some settings that worked when I installed 0.9.0b12
but I have no idea why they worked, or where I was supposed to find them.
Any help will be appreciated
Hi,
I just got a sblive platinum 5.1. And am trying to get recording
(analog) from the live drive working. I can record fine from the line
and mic on the back and can here stuff coming in on live drive but I
can't for the life of me get it recorded :(.
If anyone has managed could they send me the mixer settings they're
using and the command line to arecord (or whatever program there using
to record).
Thanks
(alsa 0.9rc3, debian sid, 2.4.19 + low latency)

Hello all,
I'm just now putting together my first linux box and need somebody to hold
my hand and walk me through the setup of my sound card. (BTW if there is
already a thread on this that I didn't catch on my quick search of the list
archives, please point me to it.)
I'm currently using a RME 96/8 PAD on a RH8 distro. I installed the alsa
packages available from freshrpms.net. After getting everything installed I
started up alsamixer and the only controls available is a volume control for
the DAC. Please tell me that I'm missing something and that there is much
more control functionality available than just levels for the DAC. Shouldn't
I have at least some sort of controls for the digital IOs and the ADAT? Is
there some sort of fancy config I need to do in /etc/asoundrc? Have I missed
something in configuration of devices, subdevices, some package not
installed etc?
Also, (slightly off topic) this card is very picky about the buffer settings
(i.e. fixed buffersize of 64KBytes). I know what settings work when setting
number of periods and frame size, but how do I work that out when programs
only let you set the buffer size in units of time rather than actual size?
Any help is appreciated.
Reguards,
-Reuben
Hi Mark,
Thanks very much for your those hints. Do you have any idea (or where I
can find the documentation) on how to play through the SPDIF or ADAT ports?
Where is the matrix mixer controls (amixer) documented for these cards?

Hi. I'm messing with similar things this evening. (And not doing
great, but not failing either.) I'm using a HDAP 9652, not the
Multiface, but it's the same driver I believe. The difference is I have
no 'headphone output'. Just 26 outputs.
I'm in KDE. Inside of a Konquerer window, I have set the file
associations for wav and x-wave to be
aplay -device="plughw"
This seems to work all the time in a Konquerer window, but doesn't work
on a file just sitting on my desktop. Don't ask me why.
FYI#1 - make sure you don't have a blocking aplay sitting around. Do a
ps -aux | grep aplay
and make sure nothing is there.
FYI#2 - My headphones and main speakers are running off of playback_1 &
2.
Good luck,
Mark

Hej to all,
I used to work with the really nice loopbased timestretching music
application ACID on windows. Is there any equivalent on linux ?
Thanks a lot

Paul,
Great info. I didn't know about modinfo. Is there a way to query what the
current setting of these parameters are? It seems that I'm told I have a
range to work in, like 1-8, but no indication of how they are currently set
or what they do. (Maybe only read the code?)
I'm sure that many are just on/off sorts of things, but some clearly are
not.
Mark

actually, i doubt that this is the issue at all. the hdsp driver has a
module option:
snd_line_outs_monitor
(possibly changed in recent versions to just "line_outs_monitor"). if
set to a non-zero value, all other outputs will be monitored on the
headphone/line out channels. you can find out about module options
using the modinfo command. for example:
% modinfo snd-hdsp
filename: /lib/modules/2.4.19/kernel/sound/pci/rme9652/snd-hdsp.o
description: "RME Hammerfall DSP"
author: "Paul Davis <pbd(a)op.net>"
license: "GPL"
parm: snd_index int array (min = 1, max = 8), description "Index
value for RME Hammerfall DSP interface."
parm: snd_id string array (min = 1, max = 8), description "ID string
for RME Hammerfall DSP interface."
parm: snd_enable int array (min = 1, max = 8), description
"Enable/disable specific Hammerfall DSP soundcards."
parm: snd_precise_ptr int array (min = 1, max = 8), description
"Enable precise pointer (doesn't work reliably)."
parm: snd_line_outs_monitor int array (min = 1, max = 8), description
"Send all input and playback streams to line outs by default."
parm: snd_force_firmware int array (min = 1, max = 8), description
"Force a reload of the I/O box firmware"
the parameter defaults to zero, so by default, you hear nothing.
there is no way to use any existing linux audio mixer to control
*what* you hear - the hdsp has 1542 mixer controls arranged in a
matrix, and its just not possible to make sense of this with mixers
designed around a few channels with direct routing. work is proceeding
on an equivalent to RME's TotalMix to offer ways of controlling this.

Hi,
I have just bought myself the Cardbus+Multiface RME system. I think I
have finally gotten the alsa modules (snd-hammerfall-mem and snd-hdsp)
to load correctly along with the OSS emulation modules. BUT I cant seem
to play anything out of the Lineout/Headphone output. I have tried
various 'amixer cset' commands but all I get is silence (trying to play
a simple wav file using aplay).
Any suggetsions?

Well done, guys!
Im really impressed, being able now to play and record from/to several MIDI
sources, and work with a long session without a single crash. Thank you very
much!

Thanks for the info but I still have a few questions.
Does the AI3 support 96 KHz like the ADI-8 DS does? I know it supports
24 bit, which is useful. Does the ADI-8 DS do anything the AI3 can't?
the price difference is huge, and I don't really see all that much of a
difference.
Thanks!
Robert Cohen
Also, where can I find a copy of the HDSP 9652 drivers?
