There are a LOT of channels, more than you might suspect. This feeds into the other part: the mixer application (the thing that's probably gui'ed, that you turn on levels with) must turn o nthe right set of values. At least so far, all of the mixer applications haven't had enough channels to brighten my day. Well, maybe I can use the info from ALSA, the Linux sound (which does work on digital output, does turn on the right set) to id things. If I can keep on with this, I would surely love to get this working. > > Have fun, > > Ulrik > > Chuck Robey wrote: > >> Just one simple question: >> >> I have a SoundBlaster Audigy, it's got analog and digital outputs.
