still concerned with the issue that zita-a2j
doesn't work properly
on
my computers (I’ve also tried it with another machine, both run
arch
linux) I enabled zita-a2j in verbose mode which tells me:
playback : not enabled
capture :
nchan : 2
fsamp : 48000
fsize : 256
nfrag : 2
format : S16_LE
whilst "playback" is indicated to be disabled, "capture" lacks a
state,
at all.
What do you mean by 'lacks a state' ?
I mean that in the verbose output above there’s nothing mentioned after
the entry "capture". but in the output you pasted below it’s the same,
so this obviously is the normal behaviour.
Is there any output after the lines you quoted, like
fons@zita1:~> zita-a2j -d hw:1,0 -v
playback : not enabled
capture :
nchan : 2
fsamp : 48000
fsize : 256
nfrag : 2
format : S32_LE
Starting synchronisation.

-0.114 1.000094 327
0.128 1.000019 328
etc. ?
no, on both my computers there’s nothing printed after "Starting
synchronization".
This problem is quite mysterious...
I've got zita-j2a running on one of my machines at work, with
a Digico 48-ch MADI interface for two months or so without
interruption. Use it almost every day, no problems...
I have uninstalled zita-ajbridge, restartet and
reinstalled, but
the
problem persists.
Could you try jaaa -A or japa -A with the same sound card and
see if you get any signal in or out ?
I tried japa with that soundcard (Zoom H4n with usb connection):
[christoph@x270 ~]$ japa -A -d hw:1
playback :
nchan : 2
fsamp : 48000
fsize : 1024
nfrag : 2
format : S16_LE
capture :
nchan : 2
fsamp : 48000
fsize : 1024
nfrag : 2
format : S16_LE
synced
Connected to ALSA with 2 inputs and 2 outputs
from the speaker of the device I can hear constant noise and its meters
show constant input at around -10 db. in the little window which is
opened I can also see some movements in the diagram when I gently tap
the device’s microphones. so, yes: there’s plenty of signal.
Maybe it’s related to my distribution, arch? I have no clue.
in alsamixer there’s nothing to adjust for the H4n, it says: this
device has no controls.
so, indeed mysterious.
Ciao,
ciao & thanks & have a good day!
