Greetings:
This question is directed to Lee Revell and anyone who is using or has
tried to use the multichannel capability for the ALSA SBLive module.
When I select multichannel duplex operation in QJackCtl I get 16
channels for input and two channels for output. Is that the default I/O
channel arrangement ?
You should get 16 in and 16 out. You have to individually select the
multichannel devices for input (hw:x,2) and output (hw:x,3).
What Lee said.
I am using the EMU10K1 driver on both an Audigy2 EX and ZS models.
These cards both have 6 analog inputs (3 stereo lines) and the EX is 6.1
out (7 analog outputs) and the ZS is 7.1 out (8 analog outputs). I have
worked out the mapping from the pcm_capture and pcm_playback ports to
the physical analog inputs and outputs which I will share if you are
interested.
The only problem I found is that the alsa-mixer volume control sliders
are left-right switched for all of the stereo output pairs. I mean, if
you plug a standard 1/8" stereo-to-RCA cable into the stereo output on
the card, the appropriate left slider controls the signal on the red RCA
plug - which is typically the right channel - and vice versa. This is
true for all stereo output pairs.
I reported this bug to the ALSA bugtracker about a year ago
(
https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=904), but the
behavior persists....
