Hallo!
hi list. im interested in working with more than two audio inputs or/and outputs. do i need a special adc~/dac~ external or does PD understand if there are more then two inputs/outputs. well fx if i use a soundcard like Firewire 410.
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'. 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!
