digital S/PDIF recording with 44.1 kHz

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a number of DAT tapes recorded with a sampling frequency of
44.1 kHz (16 bit stereo, of course), and would like to have these
recordings moved to the computer without leaving the digital domain,
and if possible without resampling. On Linux.

I own a Zoltrix Nightingale Pro 6 sound card with S/PDIF daughter
board (showing up in lspci as "02:03.0 Multimedia audio controller:
C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10)"), which works fine on
Windows.

When I use this card with arecord on Linux
(using arecord -Dhw:0,2 -f cd), the wav file that gets written is
correctly detected by file(1) as 44.1 kHz stereo 16 bit, but is
playing back about a third too fast: A 10 seconds recording plays in
like 7 seconds, with the pitch shifted up appropriately as well. I can
upload a test file to a web server if that's of any help.

Can anybody say what is going wrong here?

My OS is Debian sid, and I can experiment, and deliver any debugging
information that might be useful.

Greetings
Marc
