Hi Clemens,
Quick guide:
The bXxxxxID and bSourceID fields specify how the
units/terminals are connected together.
In the bmaControls field, index 0 has controls acting on
all channels, while index 1 and greater specify controls
acting on that specific channel only.
thanks a lot. But now, it really gets too difficult for me.
Anyway, I managed to set up my card as desired, and I have
made screenshots of alsamixer - maybe I'll print them out and
nail it to the wall for later reference ;-) .
BTW: The aureon really works out of the box with the
snd-usb-audio-driver and is a card at a reasonable price for
the home musician I think.
Mixing the Aureon is more difficult. I found some pics of the
windows control panel on the web, which is much more
understandable. Should I ask Terratec for providing a nice QT
mixer GUI for it ;-) ?
Concerning the AC 97 card, I followed your hint and got a
sample block diagram which made me better understanding the
settings of kmix; I plan to derive a free diagram from it and
put it somewhere on the net.
Thanks for your support & best regards
