Hello,

*** description :
I want to record wav files from several *identical* (except for serial 
number) usb audio soundcard.

My sound cards must appear in the right order. For example, physical 
card called n°1 must always correspond to the same name 
(/dev/snd/pcmC1D0c for example), whatever is the pluging order.

This part is done easily with UDEV and is working.


*** question :
Now my problem is that no one seems to use /dev/snd/pcmCxDx to access 
cards ?

For example, I can't find how to tell to arecord to use 
/dev/snd/pcmC1D0c device.
arecord use -D parameter with card and device number (-D hw:1,0 for 
example), but these parameters are *not* affected by UDEV. So my UDEV 
rules are useless for arecord.

Same for other programs I found : ecasound, ... each program seems to 
access the cards using hw:x,x parameters and not the /dev name.

*** in other words :
I just want to know how to record a wav file from a given physical card 
; knowing that I have up to 5 identical cards except for the serial number ?


I have done a lot of search on google and the mailing list, and I was 
unable to find a solution. The "index=" parameter when loading module is 
not applicable to me because the cards are the same. Sorry if my problem 
has been already asked.

Regards,
                                        Xavier
