Hi, I followed the tips below and it worked, (great!) but the sound is glitchy at all -audiobuf and sample rate settings. I assume it should work smoothly- should I try a new version of alsa? I am still hanging on to 9.2 because it works with the quattro and pd 0.36-0- I don't want to lose the combination until something else works... Thanks for any hints Tim Barrass >cool, the maudio quattro is working through the oss layer again !!! >if /dev/dsp0 is your quattro, create a symlink from /dev/adsp0 to >/dev/dsp1 ... then you can start pd with -audiodev 1,2 and you'll be >able to access all 4 channels in and out ... better than frank's alsa >hack ;-) > Tim mailto:TimBlechmann@gmx.de > ICQ: 96771783
