changing the file has no effect unless you run alsactl as well to reload the new state. the passthru script doesn't change your file, just the state of the card. >A few things concern me.

If its not on for channels 17&18, that would explain why you don't get any output. i think i have an idea what is happening. do you want me to explain, or do you just want to try out a patch? >Thanks again for you help.

Until then, I'm sweat with this RME.. if you want in-computer A/D/D/A, save your money and buy one of RME's 8-channel A/D and D/A converters. personally, i prefer an external converter (i use a frontier designs tango24 at home (8 channels)). --p _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
