I am having a couple problems using PD's adc~ and configuring my soundcard. Using my soundcard which is a basic 2 channel in 2 channel out ess maestro that cam with my laptop, I can ether select mic or line.
- If I select the line in on the soundcard, I can
process the audio fine in PD and send it to the dac~, however a huge drawback is that the incoming sound is also automatically looped to the output of my soundcard unaltered. so I get a mixture of what I have processed in PD and what is the dry signal comming in.
- If I select the mic in on the soundcard then I
will sometimes get a really choppy stuttering input. It sometimes works, but then it seems like the audio crashes and it cannot import audio anymore, and the only way to fix it is to restart PD.
can anyone tell me if there is a real time audio input setting that I want to be using with PD or if there is something that I am missing????? I am on a winxp
thanks Bradon~

thats pretty odd... have you tested this soundcard with other audio programs? if not, try using http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ to see if its the card, driver, or pd.
good luck,

Yes, I am pretty sure the soundcard is working properly, I use many other sound programs and have never had any problems with them however [PD] is the only one I am trying to do realtime processing with. I have tested recording in soundforge on both mic and line in's and have gotten clean signals with no problem....???? I wonder if it could possibly be a network card problemm. I remember once long a go directX 7 or 8 did not like my NIC. I will try to temporarly disable it. Thanks for the advice I'll keep trying.

from my experience this is often to do with some built-in software that companies like creative supply with their soundcards, or even windows itself... there are various 'auralisation' programs that run in the background that mess around with your stereo output, and can automatically add microphone monitoring to the outputs too. The first thing to do would be to bring up the windows audio mixer (I'm presuming you're on windows here, due to mention of directx) by double clicking the little speaker in the taskbar, then make sure the monitoring faders are as they should be (ie no direct sound from microphone or other strange device that might appear). just mute everything except CD and wave. next if this hasn't solved it would be to go to the options menu and look at recording options. faders may be set wrongly here too...
and finally, run all the shortcuts to whatever software came with the soundcard,- mixers, auralisation and environment simulations, all that rubbish and disable it.
can you hear the mic output when pd is not running? good luck, I may be completely wrong but these are solutions to problems encountered by friends in the past... cheers

hey thanks a bunch, my stupid mistake, there was a hidden setting under my soundcard options that was mirroring the signal coming into the line jack, so I just muted it.....*embarassed*
