Re: [Alsa-user] USB soundcard advice

Thanks everyone who shared his thoughts. I think I'll get myself the M Audio transit. It seems to be an expensive deck of cards, but it sounds like the quality is good and I guess it's not easy to achieve that on that scale. For now I'll stick with my pc-headset (sennheiser), which can operate wi

Hi Clemens and everybody else, I just rebuilt my kernel activating CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED as you suggested and I still get the same problem with the usual messages when the sound is messed-up and I try to play the next song ; [ 758.452549] usb 3-2: amarokapp timed out on ep0out len=0/0

[Alsa-user] Multiple cards, alphanumeric names?

OK. I now find myself happily educated in "card" names (HD2 in my case), "devices" as being items on cards (HD2,0 et cetera), and "subdevices" whose names appear to be used in rather different locations. My next question: What if I had two cards of this type? Do I have to use numeric names,

[Alsa-user] Intel HDA - AD1883 Codec - Jack Sense / Detect

Hello; We have a custom motherboard Intel HDA / AD1883. For output, we connect the headphone jack and the mono / front speaker. We are unable to get audio in Linux (Windows is fine) that activates the front/mono speaker. The headphones work without a problem. However, none of the 4 "model=

Thanks for all replies so far! I'm reading information re all suggestions. Many seem very nice. I will use it with a laptop and I guess there's no need therefore to get a card with fancy features such as xlr or direct monitoring of the inputs. I basically want to be able to use a combination of

Hi there, I own a HiFi USB sound card based on a TI Burr-Brown chip. It worked out of the box with Linux on two of my machines. However, I have bought a new machine and now I still haven't found a way to make it play correctly. After a random amount of time, the sound gets garbled. This is p

I have one of those. You can find a US vendor on ebay if you look at all the ads. It uses a C-Media chip. Not the greatest specs, but many usb cards like the Griffin Imic have no specs at all. -Original Message- From: Fabrício Nihues Date: Tue, 3 Nov 2009 11:48:47 To: Felix Pfeifer Cc:
