Hi all,
I'm trying to setup my Aspire One so I can record what's playing on the
sound card. I've got pretty far (compiled in snd-aloop, andit works), but
I'm looking for some help to tidy up the process for novices...
(At the moment I need to reboot every time I switch between the internal
sound card and snd-aloop).
To record audio currently, I set snd-aloop to be the default sound card
by making it load as card 0 by setting "options snd-aloop index=0" in
/etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf.dist and rebooting.
Then, to make sound come out the speakers, I use a pipe to send data from
snd-aloop to the sound card $ arecord -D hw:0,1 -f cd | aplay -D hw:1 -f cd
and if I want to record anything, I stop that and restart it but
intercept the data with a tee... $ arecord -D hw:0,1 -f cd | tee
myrecording | aplay -D hw:1 -f cd
Then when I'm done, recording, I set snd-aloop's index back to 1 and
reboot (which causes the sound card to load as the default driver again).
So, I've figured most of this out, so it probably utterly the wrong way
to do this (is there something I can put in .asoundrc to avoid having to
reboot?) - any help configuring this properly now I know it's possible to
listen and record at the same time is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Duncan.
