Hallo, Georg Holzmann hat gesagt: // Georg Holzmann wrote:
first you have to add your channels at startup as a command line argument. e.g. 'pd -listdev' shows you wich channels you can use, then start pd with these channels, maybe 'pd -audioindev 1,2 -audiooutdev 1,2'.
I think, this is not quite true. -audio[X]dev tells Pd what "card" to use, not what cannels. It's analog to -midi[X]dev which lets you use more than one midi device, but you still have the 16 channels per device to use in the midi objects. Contrary to -audiodev multiple mididevs actually do work, whereas I never got Pd to talk to more than one soundcard reliably.
Then in pd you can make the object [adc~ 1 2 3 4] or [dac~ 1 2 3 4] - so you'll have 4 channels!
This is correct, but as I wrote, you don't need to start with audiodev 1,2 or similar.
