Hi Felix and Lesik,

You can investigate a lot already with 'lsusb' and then with 'alsamixer"
(from alsa-utils).  Alsamixer is a console program that uses Ncurses for
graphics and has some odd keybindings [2] but you may just have to
unmute it.

If I connect my Komplete Audio 1 with usb to my laptop:
I get this message:

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ lsusb

gfp@Tuxedo ~$ alsamixer

That is without installing pipewire.
I installed pipewire etc, but after an sudo guix system reconfigure...
I had no sound at all. I lost what I had, and I didn't get pipewire.
So I had to change to an older generation to get rid of everything I had installed.

Approx. 2 years ago Csepp said: Guix home can´t be deleted if installed.
So I didn´t dare to install it.
Secondly I am not on that level to configure my system.

So I can´t use my audio interface at the moment.

Thanks for help

Gottfried

How did you manage to use it in Guix?

Lesik will give you a better answer, although "the Komplete Audio 1 is
class-compliant." [1]

My understaning is all modern sound daemons such as PulseAudio or
Pipewire are built on top of ALSA, which stands for Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture.

Please send the songs you will records with your new system!

Kind regards
Felix
