[LAU] alsamixer

Hi :) several times I got the reply that all settings of RME sound cards are available by alsamixer, so seemingly I'm doing something wrong. This isn't a request regarding to my RME sound card, just a question about how to use alsamixer. I'm missing how to set up the routing. You for sure remember that using TotaMix on Windows I can access all 8 ADAT channels, but using TotalMix on Linux, aka hdspmixer, I only can use ADAT channels 1 and 2, the others aren't available by jack. hdspmixer shows a signal for all 8 ADAT channels, the signal only is missing for jack. So how can I use alsamixer to ensure that e.g. ADAT channel 3 is jack capture_9? ADAT channel 1 is available by jack capture_7, channel 2 by capture_8, but than it stops, the other captures don't get the audio signal. $ amixer scontents Simple mixer control 'ADAT Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'ADAT SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'AES Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'AES SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'Chn',1 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 24 [38%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',2 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',3 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',4 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',5 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',6 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',7 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',8 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',9 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',10 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',11 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',12 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',13 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 19 [30%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',14 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',15 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'Chn',16 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 64 Mono: 64 [100%] Simple mixer control 'External Rate',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'Internal Clock',0 Capabilities: enum Items: '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: '48 kHz' Simple mixer control 'Preferred Sync Reference',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Word Clock' 'ADAT' 'AES' 'SPDIF' 'Sync In' Item0: 'Word Clock' Simple mixer control 'SPDIF Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'SPDIF SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'SYNC IN Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'SYNC IN SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'System Clock Mode',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Master' 'AutoSync' Item0: 'Master' Simple mixer control 'System Sample Rate',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 27000 - 207000 Mono: 48000 [12%] Simple mixer control 'TCO Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'TCO SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'N/A' Simple mixer control 'WC Frequency',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' '32 kHz' '44.1 kHz' '48 kHz' '64 kHz' '88.2 kHz' '96 kHz' '128 kHz' '176.4 kHz' '192 kHz' Item0: 'No Lock' Simple mixer control 'WC SyncCheck',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'No Lock' 'Lock' 'Sync' 'N/A' Item0: 'No Lock' Regards, Ralf
