I've been using Linux for quite some time now and finally got around to using
it for audio and MIDI. I must say i'm very impressed with all the
applications i've been using.
Thanks to all (developers and users) for making Linux audio/music development
a reality.

I'd like to give thanks as well, especially to the people up at Stanford
running CCRMA, thanks for giving me back my social life, its so much
easier to get a system up and running quickly with all the best software.

I'm checking out my options for doing high quality audio with my new linux
laptop, and I read about hammerfall's pcmcia interface to their dsp system
and I'm wondering what people's experiences have been.

For some time, I've been using the PCI card with a Digiface in the
studio as a front end to outboard 24/96 converters. About three
months ago I bought the Cardbus card to see if I could put together a
reasonably compact field recording rig.
On the whole, my experiences with it have been quite favourable.
Running on a 2.4.20 kernel with Andrew Morton's low-latency patches,
JACK and the ALSA HDSP driver have been very stable and trouble-free.
I've been using ecasound to capture 2-6 tracks to an external Firewire
drive, and have never had a glitch or xrun during recording.
(I've been experimenting with Ardour in the studio, but I don't think
I'd use it for live recording yet...)
The BIG limitation for me is that 96k sampling rates aren't accessible
through the Cardbus interface. Perhaps Paul can comment on how
difficult he expects this bug will be to fix. Also, the ALSA driver
doesn't support external sync for either the PCI or Cardbus interfaces.

i havent seen it in action under gnu/linux yet, but was highly impressed
at its performance on a mac g3 laptop :).

I'm using carbus + multiface on a toshiba laptop.
It now works fine but had a hard time getting it to work, due to a
kernel issue fixed in kernels => 2.4.20.
I noticed strange midi responsiveness losses, but I can't be sure it is
the card. I have to investigate this further.
I'm currently writing a Totalmix clone that I hope to release at the end
of the month.

That's odd -- what sort of kernel issues have you had problems with?
I've used the card without problems on 2.4 kernels 18 through 20.

The problem was specific to the intel cardbus/pci bridge found in my
laptop. See the following link for more information :

I have the hammerfall dsp cardbus interface and a multiface. I use it in a
dell inspiron 4150 laptop running debian unstable and it works well. It was
much easier to set up than I expected, it took about the same time to install
as it did in windows as I already had alsa installed with all the modules
compiled so it was just a matter of editing a few files. I have been
recording drums and guitar using ardour and the quality seems good, but I
haven't compared it to anything else yet. One thing it does need though is a
better mixer as I think at the moment you can only control the volume of the
outputs in alsamixer or at least very few controls. I think someone is
working on a clone of RME's totalmix which should make the card more
appealing.

Tim,
Have you used the MIDI on your MultiFace? I have the new HDSP 9752
and the MIDI works terribly. Very bad timing. I'm wondering if the
MultiFace has the same problem or whether there is a solution there that
could somehow be applied to my case.
Thanks,
Mark

The HDSP cardbus + Multiface had the same problem, but Paul's recent
patch to alsa-kernel/pci/rme9652/hdsp.c fixes it.
(I notice that the patched code isn't in CVS yet, but anyone that
needs it can get it from the alsa-devel mailing list archives. I know
_you've_ already got it, Mark...)

Sure do, and very happy to hear it's helping you. Since I'm RPM based
from the Planet, I'll wait for Fernando to build it in, but I'm anxious
to be able to test and use this part of the HDSP 9652.
Thanks for writing back.
