I'm getting closer to testing my new Delta 1010.
Are there any more reports of problems with the device?
I'm hoping there won't be. Hearing that some people get a "hiss" noise
is scary.
Hi Ect,
I have a soundcard (Hoontech DSP3000) using the same Envy24/ICE1712
as the Delta 1010.
I also have experience with hiss problems. I think it
happens when the hardware/software gets initialized into
an odd state. I recall it's an all-or-nothing thing.
Obviously it is rare enough that Delta et. al aren't having
trouble selling hardware. :-)
I don't remember all the details but do recall a couple
of ways I've used to control how initialization takes place are:
* power cycling the computer (initializes PCI card)
* powering on the external I/O box (usually after the computer is booted)
* loading the snd-ice1712 driver (usually after powering up the I/O box)
You can imagine that a different sequence of powering the
hardware and loading the driver could cause some difference
in behavior.
Hope that helps,
Joel
Does this issue with the device depend on which year
the 1010 was made?
Or which version kernel & operating system is being used?
Or any other factors? (I'm going to assume it could be a number of
factors, though seems like it could quickly be narrowed down to just a
couple or few primary targets of concern, like the actual Delta 1010,
the computer hardware/software, or the use of an additional interface
like a mixer.)
Is it true that Delta 1010 made after 2007 has a problem/conflict with
Linux? (If so that's bad news for me! I have a brand new Delta.) :-\
I'm crossing my fingers that once I get everything hooked up correctly
between my Mackie mixer & Delta 1010 that everything will work fine on
the computer. Of course I'll need to get the software settings correct
also. I understand I can do that via JACK and "Envy24 control". Then
getting settings right in Ardour. Anyway, my main question here is
pertaining to the previous mention of the Delta 1010 having background
hiss.

I'll have to revisit this next weekend. The test machine is racked and
I'm too tired. There is plenty of other goodies keeping me busy, namely,
I just managed to get Perfect Space convolution reverb and Kontakt2 with
garritan personal orchestra flowing from MuseScore and Rosegarden.
Although the setup seems tenuous at best, it is working and hasn't
failed in anyway yet. I'll be testing most of the VSTs delivered with
sonar 7 professional (many, many) over the next week.
Sounds flowing from within (software) and out (playback) are flawless.
I am extremely excited with the performance of music on linux. I'd love
to get involved in some dev work -- I'm not a shabby C/C++ coder.
thanks
David

Could there be a difference in the drivers
between the 2496 and the
1010... or maybe between 32-bit and 64-bit? I guess my next course
of action is to simply grab the 2496 out of the test machine and
toss it in here to see if there is noise or not.
Reasonable plan. I'm using an Athlon 64-X2 in 32-bit mode.
