Hi Daniel,
The problem of the freebob project is that it mainly depends on the
personal engagement of Daniel Wagner. If he decides to found a
family, I fear the project will be relatively dead.
I object ;)
I think that even when Daniel would stop, the project wouldn't die.
And isn't this the main problem with all (starting) open-source projects?
He, you must know more than I do? :) Where is that girlfriend now?
Hehe ;-) .
Just for clarification: Your work is *much* appreciated, and I'm already
lurking around freebob since I've seen your impressive talk at the LAC.
For the time being I bought an Edirol UA-25, but a FW device still is
on my wishlist :) .
If I make it to LAC this year, I'll bring along a setup that might even
impress you more ;)
Freebob works, it works lot better than last year. and it has a lot of
new functionallity.
I think the current code is very (u)s(t)able, although I don't know what
the people actually using it think ;)
Fortunately, Pieter Palmer is also hacking on this project. I still
hope that someone helps a bit out with the ALSA part (this is a
hint...).
I wish I could. Can it be written in docbook ;-) ?
And finally even the Edirol
FA-101 "only" offers 10 inputs.
It is possible to 'stack' devices. You can use two devices for
example. They appear as one sound card.
Even in conjunction with JACK? This would be very cool news.
I can confirm that this works. I can confirm that a 18 in / 18 out
device composed of two terratec phase88's works ;)
At this point only JACK is supported, not ALSA. But I'm planning to
implement ALSA support after my skiing trip this week.
Greets,
Pieter Palmers
