Hi,
I'm posting to this list hoping to get some directions. I'm trying to setup a Linux system (Ubuntu/Debian) with PD and a SB Live 5.1 PCI card using 4 channel output. Is this even possible?
I'm hoping to use 4 audio channels with PD and the SB Live. I've been looking how to accomplish this. I'm now looking into the .asoundrc config files. I've tried different setups but I haven't been able to get PD to use 4 channels of the card, only 2 channels. This is what I have done so far:
.asoundrc: ctl.live-test { type hw card 0 } pcm.live-test { type hw card 0 }
pcm.live-multi_4 { type multi slaves.a.pcm live-test; slaves.a.channels 4; bindings.0.slave a; bindings.0.channel 0; bindings.1.slave a; bindings.1.channel 1; bindings.2.slave a; bindings.2.channel 2; bindings.3.slave a; bindings.3.channel 3; }
Then I start pd as follows: pd -alsa -alsaadd live-multi_4 -audiodev 2 -channels 4 -noadc
But then only the first two channels work.
Rg,
Arnaud
