But that's of no really use now, because I am really getting insane now - we tried all of these point already and now they work - wtf?!? Perhaps really bad mood rays at my playe??? But okay, lets see: I even did reactivate the onboard-soundcard (which apperently is the only thing that changed). So I guess the reason why I did not work up to now will never be revealed. My next step is now to get my signal fro mthe bass-guitar into the PC. I do get a on "Monitor inputs", so here all right. I think I will go into jack now. With which paramters do you start the jackd?

Re: Getting M-Audio Delta 66 working
I just noticed something a little bit strange. I booted into my Windows just to see if the soundcard is working there. And when I look into the settings, I did see the following: - Windows is using the device "S/PDIF" Output from the Delta 66 as standard output device. - in the M-Audio mixer, the settings are as follows: SPDIF-Output-source: "sw rtn" 1/2 out: Mixer I noticed that when I am changing the output of "spdif out" to "mixer", I have quite the same situation as under Linux: I can see the level-meters of "spdif out" and the "master" moving, but no output. This only changes when I set "spdif out" to "sw rtn" and "1/2 out" to "mixer" Now the problem: I can´t really transfer "sw rtn" onto my Linux system, because we have other names for that here. But perhaps this helps to find the cause? So is there any way to configure this under Linux? I am quite confused now, because the terms are different in both OS.

> Can you check in Envy24 to see if your monitor inputs are unmuted? They seem to be unmunted: They are light grey, not dark grey. But this leads us to another point: Should I see any level moving here? I don't think so, because on the "monitor inputs" I can control the 4 hardware inputs of the break out box plus the 2 spdif inputs, as far as I see. Or am I wrong? Anyway, for today, I think I should switch my PC off, because I'm really getting desperate. I was thinking about what can be done about this and I just wanted to propose that if any of you would like to check this on my PC, I would be willing to give ssh access to it. Regards, Dennis -- Pt!

The M-audio hardware has stable and reliable drivers (modules) in linux, and there's plenty of users who have much success with them, me included. (Mine's a Delta 44, but the Ice1712 module is still the same) The fact you're getting a signal in Envy24 is a good sign. So follow the signal. Up to Envy24, you have success, as the meters show. Daniel quite rightly suggested you check your ADCs and DACs. Do so, and put them up to a reasonable level. Next, if you're getting a signal in the digital mixer strip, that's good too, it means the signal is getting that far. In the patchbay/router tab of Envy 24, make sure you have ticked: PCM Out 1, PCM Out 2, etc.. And in the Analog Volume tab, lift the levels to something reasonable that won't be too soft to hear, or conversly, frighten the neighbours. 90 would probably do here to begin with. Try your sound again. If successful, excellent. If not, read on.. So to a test app. Audacity is't a good choice. If you're on UBStudio (and i assume this from the list heading), then i suggest you download through synpatic, a simple synth to test with. When i first started figuring out how to use Linux Audio, i used an app call Hexter. It's a simple DX7 emulator, and possesses single audio out and midi in, and importantly, gives you an immediate response, be it success or temporary failure, because it's a synth, and doesn't require extra sound libraries or soundfonts. So how do you hook your midi keyboard into Hexter? At kernel level, you'll find Alsa, and your ice1712 module is inserted there. But a level above that is the mighty Jack, a powerful 'Hub' that enables you have several apps, or 'clients' working together at the same time. Jack intereacts with Alsa using a 'backend', which is the software sound device of your choice, be it Alsa, oss, Ffado, Freebob, or dummy. So the next step is to install, from Synaptic, Jackd, and Qjackctl. This will give you not only the Jack Hub, or Server, as it's called, but a user interface in the form of Qjackctl (Also known as Jack Control). Once you've done this, open Qjackctl, and go to setup. In the setup window, you'll find some settings on the right, starting from near the top, which is the driver selection. As you've already had success with an Alsa/Envy signal response, choose Alsa. Next, you'll see a drop down box marked Interface. You can leave this as default for now, provided you selected Alsa as the sound weapon of choice. Then go down to Audio. Here you 'll see three dropdown options, Duplex, Capture, and Playback. For now, leave this on duplex. Next, you'll see input device, and output device, These are, by default, set on, erm, default. With the arrow to the right of each box check the device. Mine has Delta 44 as hw:0, and Ice1712 as hw:0.0. If this is the case with you, then leave these as default, for now. Now go to the middle of the setup window, and find Frames/Period (leave the priority selection alone for now.) We'll try a relaxed setting first of 1024. Then sample rate. Check in the Envy24 hardware settings tab, for which sample rate you have ticked.

(In my case it's 44100) Next, Periods/Buffer. Set this to a safe "3". Next settings are Port Maximum, and Timeout. You can leave the Port Max as is, but change the Timeout to 2000, as this will give your system some 'slack' to work with. Then go to Start Delay, and make this 2secs, if it isn't already. Lastly, go to the bottom left corner of the setup window, and
Re: Getting M-Audio Delta 66 working
In envy24control you need to make sure that the ADC's and DAC's are turned up, that the signal is being routed to pcm outs, that your clock is set to a reasonable setting. (I once accidentally set my clock to sync to spdif and couldn't change the clock settings till I plugged in a digital source), and that you don't have any of the channels muted in the mixer. Also go to the command line and type in alsa-mixer and check that your levels are turned up there as well. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
Re: Getting M-Audio Delta 66 working
> I've never been able to get audacity to work right on my machine using a > Delta 1010lt. Okay, but I tried to get an Output with Audacious, with mp123, with mpg123-alsa... Nothing, everytime the same result: The level-meters show a signal, but nothing is coming out of speakers... Does anyone have an idea? Background: I can send back the soundcard if it does not work. So already now the second question: If the M-Audio 66 is not the only card you would suggest, what else may I buy and works under Linux? I know that you certainly will support me here to get this working, but from my point of view, it does not really help me nor do all of you have the time to look what's wrong on my system... I'd prefer to et it working, yes, but if there is another card for recording that works out of the box on ubuntu studio, well, then the solution is quite near! Regards, Dennis -- Pt!

Well, I tried pressing them several times, but nothing came out of my speakers.Still, I get a signal shown on the left "Digital Mixer". I guess it may related to the outputs of Audacity and the settings of the patchbay in envy. But I am not quite sure about these, perhaps you may support me here? Regards, Dennis -- Pt!

Getting M-Audio Delta 66 working
Hello list, I just got my M-Audio Delta 66 soundcard today and I got it in my system. Now, I tried to get it work, but I just can get something out of the card. So let's begin with the details. I disabled the on-board soundcard in BIOS and rebooted. So lets see: $ lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 Host Bridge 00:02.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc RS690 PCI to PCI Bridge (PCI Express Graphics Port 0) 00:12.0 SATA controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 Non-Raid-5 SATA 00:13.0 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB (OHCI0) 00:13.1 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB (OHCI1) 00:13.2 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB (OHCI2) 00:13.3 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB (OHCI3) 00:13.4 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB (OHCI4) 00:13.5 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 USB Controller (EHCI) 00:14.0 SMBus: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 SMBus Controller (rev 14) 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 IDE 00:14.3 ISA bridge: ATI Technologies Inc SB600 PCI to LPC Bridge 00:14.4 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 PCI to PCI Bridge 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation GeForce 8800 GT (rev a2) 02:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. ICE1712 [Envy24] PCI Multi-Channel I/O Controller (rev 02) 02:0e.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) 02:0f.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8110SC/8169SC Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) I am not quite sure, but there is a PCI Multi-Channel card which should be mine. As I saw on the m-audio site that drivers for this card are available from opensound.com, I downloaded the file " oss-linux-4.1-1051_amd64.deb" there and installed it. So far, so good. Now, next goal would be that the soundcard is giving out something via one of the 4 outputs. And this is were I fail. So lets see: $ ossinfo Version info: OSS 4.1 (b 1051/200812302211) (0x00040100) Platform: Linux/x86_64 2.6.24-23-rt #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Mon Jan 26 02:32:55 UTC 2009 (mick-recstudio) Number of audio devices:10 Number of audio engines:10 Number of mixer devices:2 Device objects 0: osscore0 OSS core services 1: oss_envy240 M Audio Delta 66 interrupts=1704919 (1704919) 2: oss_usb0 USB audio core services 3: usb046d08b2-0 Logitec Quickcam Pro 4000 (mic) 4: usb046d08b2-1 Logitec Quickcam Pro 4000 (mic) Mixer devices 0: M Audio Delta 66 (Mixer 0 of device object 1) 1: Logitec Quickcam Pro 4000 (mic) (Mixer 0 of device object 3) Audio devices M Audio Delta 66 out1/2 /dev/oss/oss_envy240/pcm0 (device index 0) M Audio Delta 66 out3/4 /dev/oss/oss_envy240/pcm1 (device index 1) M Audio Delta 66 S/PDIF out /dev/oss/oss_envy240/spdout (device index 2) M Audio Delta 66 in1/2/dev/oss/oss_envy240/pcmin0 (device index 3) M Audio Delta 66 in3/4/dev/oss/oss_envy240/pcmin1 (device index 4) M Audio Delta 66 S/PDIF in/dev/oss/oss_envy240/spdin (device index 5) M Audio Delta 66 input from mon. mixer /dev/oss/oss_envy240/mon (device index 6) M Audio Delta 66 (all outputs)/dev/oss/oss_envy240/10ch_out (device index 7) M Audio Delta 66 (all inputs) /dev/oss/oss_envy240/12ch_in (device index 8) Logitec Quickcam Pro 4000 (mic) rec /dev/oss/usb046d08b2-1/pcmin0 (device index 9) Ah, the soundcard is correctly detected. So I start $ ossxmix and, in another bash $ osstest In ossxmix, I see that something is happening, but I can't hear something via speakers or headphones. I guess it has to do something with jackd, but as I am not quite into the basics, perhaps somebody could tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks a lot Regards, Dennis -- Pt!
