Thanks Alan - I tried to find useful resources but couldn't, I did make better progress with alsa and created a virtual soundcard - however, I couldn't get both channels through my headphones, they are microsoft lx-3000 ones which I'm guessing may not be able to handle/cope with both channels at once?

[ubuntu-uk] Multiple soundcards
Morning all, Bit of an odd probably daft question... I use a program called mixxx as a DJ tool. The thing is I currently use USB headphones to listen to the music but would really like to use the same pair of headphones to monitor the 'other' track. Is it possible to trick Ubuntu into thinking it has two sound cards so I can use one for the main channel and one for the monitor channel but both would really be output on my USB headphones? Just trying to establish if it's physically possible before I head off to get an external 5.1 sound card and new headphones which I'm told will do the job - I'd rather not spend a fortune if there's an another solution. Thanks Dave -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
