Hallo,
I'd like to dj with my shiny new laptop and Pd. The laptop has a crappy intel_810 onboard chip and will get a quality USB stereo external box this weekend (probably the Edirol UA-20, any comments?) to work with ALSA.
While dj'ing, I thought of using the onboard chip to prelisten tracks, and use the USB for the audience. Now I wonder, if anyone already did something like that and if it would be technically possible at all.
I was thinking of an ~/.asoundrc setup as described on http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/asoundrc.php3?module=usb-audio
Can Pd use such a multi-device? Or how would you dj with Pd?
