I asked Paul once about the matrix mixer.
His answer was :

<quote>
first value: input source
second value: output source
third value: gain

input source: 0-25  (physical channels), 26-51 (audio output streams)
output source: 0-27 (physical channels)

output channels 26 and 27 are the two line outs on the I/O box.

As Michael is stating, full volume (100% in alsamixer, or full 65536
value in the matrix mixer) causes distortion. 50%, or 32786, seems to be
the highest distortion-free value. I already mentioned this on the list
but got no answer.

I succesfully tested the matrix mixer, using both amixer and the alsa
mixer api. Here's an amixer example with the values you picked above :
amixer cset numid=5 26,26,32786
amixer cset numid=5 27,27,32786
This is the kind of information that should be submitted as a note to the alsa-docs. If you submit it then people will associate your name with the info.

Currently not one person has provided anything for the advanced multi channel devices :(

Being on stage with the band in front of crowds shouting, "Get off! No! We want normal music!", I think that was more like acting than anything I've ever done.
