-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, (I hope it's ok to post messages like this to this list? If not, please steer me in the right direction...) I'm using Ardour on SuSE 8.1 (the version that comes with SuSE, not CVS). I have a Creatoive SoundBlaster Platinum, with the original edition of the LiveDrive (No IR). Using alsa 0.9.x that also came with SuSE. Inside Ardour, I can record from the sound card's microphone just fine. By setting "Capture" to the line-in (on the PCI card) with alsamixer, I can then record from the PCI card's line-in just fine, without changing any settings in Ardour. I might point out that I am using headphones connected to the LiveDrive, and not using external speakers at all. So, I thought I could just set LiveDrive-Line-In to "Capture" in alsamixer and get going. When I do that, I can hear my guitar in my headphones just fine, just like I can with the line-in or mic-in. However, no sound gets recorded. I am not sure what this means. Ardour/Jack has to be listening to alsa somehow, or I wouldn't be able to shift between mic-in and line-in with alsamixer. Why, then, does moving alsamixer over to the LiveDrive's line-in produce silence in ardor? Remember, it's not sielent in the system, as I can hear it in through headphones. It's just that Ardour doens't record it. Any ideas? Does anyone out there use a LiveDrive with ardour? Thanks!
