Re: [Alsa-user] Audio codec channels as separate devices

2014-07-02 Thread Burak METİN
Hello,

I made the sound card's input and left channels as a separate device and
run it by aplay -D myDevice test.wav
arecord -D myDevice test.wav. So far so good but i can not see myDevice in
alsamixer. Is there a solution for this?

 What is the identity of microphone (or) line in channel ?


 aplay -L lists output decives, while arecord -L lists input devices.
 The dmixer-like stuff will be dnsoop.

Hi

 I made the sound card's input and left channels as a separate device 
 and run it by aplay -D myDevice test.wav
 arecord -D myDevice test.wav. So far so good but i can not see 
 myDevice in alsamixer. Is there a solution for this?
alsamixer will only be available for controls, which your soundcard has one.
If you want to have a volume control for your virtual single-channel 
devices, you have to use another softvol plugin.

}


pcm.gcleft {
type plug
slave {

pcm.burak{

pcm.burak2{

I want to make these devices appear in alsamixer instead of the card 1. Yes
this needs writing controller plugins. Any ideas?

as said before, use softvol for that. Please note that this will then be 
handled in software and therefore need CPU.

Just use something like this:

pcm.left {
  type softvol
  pcm.slave gcleft
 ...
}

I tried this and saw nothing an alsamixer.

Can i change the hardware device names in alsamixser using plugins?

He pointed out, that the software providing what you need, other than a
hardware solution, does need CPU resources, IOW some percentage of the
CPU is used to provide the functionality you need.

$ top

does show %CPU.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softvol

Some sound devices provide amazing hardware mixers, that are remote
controlled by software, but the software doesn't do the processing. I
e.g. own a RME audio card, that comes with the amazing TotalMix,
unfortunately the Linux driver for my card is a PITA.

Ok, i got the point about cpu usage.
Can the soun device names be changed using plugins? I have searched the
alsa plugins wiki page but couldn't get an answer for this. For example my
device is named as hda_intel in alsamixer and i want to change it. Is it
possible?

See Splitting front and rear outputs on http://alsa.opensrc.org/Asoundrc.

 I have changed the /etc/asound.conf as below but nothing changed in
 alsamixer and aplay -l

These programs show only hardware controls/devices.
