that's true - but i'd like to say that it's a design problem of mixer application, not the whole audio infrastructure. for my eyes, a good-looking, user-friendly and (still) fully functional mixer is the biggest missing feature on linux audio. it's quite hard to achieve a perfect "all-purpose" mixer. there is no such one on windows nor macos. each hardware vendor provides their own mixer application to control their cards fully. > > i'm just nitpicking really, we all love linux, once we get it > working :) hehe, working how well? :) Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
