These are the standard volume controls. (Internally the volume controls use the matrix mixer) If you want to hear sound through analog outputs 1-2 using software outputs 1-2, you can either use amixer (e.g. amixer cset numid=5 26,0,16384) or alsamixer. > So we have to tell the control called numid=5 to route > the output from software 1 to line out before we can hear it through > line out? > Yes.

Anyway the clear benefit of doing it with amixer is that it is hardware mixing, thus consuming no system resources. >From your latest post: > In essence the hdsp can run 18 software streams at the same time as > processing upto 18 hardware input streams? > Yes.
