Thanks for all the help guys.
Im still trying to work out how JACK works... the end-user docs for its
operation are almost non-existant. All i seem to find are devel docs and simple
FAQ's like those on the JACK website.
I dont have X installed, so all these nice X windows JACK utils are useless to
me. And no... im not going to install X either.
If im going to use JACK to tie all this together, my first problem is getting it
working with a multichannel ALSA device.
The output card is a Envy24HT... i have asound.conf setup for a PCM per stereo
output (evny_1, envy_2, etc).
How do i tie these channels together to make a single 10 channel device that
JACK can then output to?
Ive tried using "type multi" for a PCM device in asound, but i cannot get it to
work.... even this doesnt work:
pcm.multi
{
type multi;
slaves.a.pcm "envy_1";
slaves.a.channels 2;
bindings.0.slave a;
bindings.0.channel 0;
bindings.1.slave a;
bindings.1.channel 1;
}
where "envy_1" looks like:
pcm.envy_1
{
type plug
slave.pcm {
type hw
card 1
device 0
subdevice 0
}
}
aplay to "envy_1" works fine.
aplay to "multi" says its working, but gives no sound output.
Ill leave it there....
Ill mention the second problem, when this is worked out.
Thanks again everyone.
