Hi.
I recently bought the Audient iD14, which is a class compliant USB2 device.
I would like to use it for writing and record music. Apparently it has great converters.
After some online searching I came across a similar question on StackOverflow:
Question
"Ubuntu lists my audio interface as Analogue Surround 4.0 when it actually only plays in stereo. As a result, the audio plays louder in the right channel than the left channel."
Answer
"Ubuntu (Linux in general) is correct in assigning 4 outputs as there are 4 outputs on the iD14. As you and I both know, only one pair of outputs are physically accessible. Outputs 3&4 are primarily used to send alternate mixes to musicians and are only accessible via the Audient mixer and/or DAW. The iD14 is class compliant in as far as it is recognised and some audio can be heard. Unfortunately that is as far as it goes (currently) as there is no mixer available to ALSA or Pulse etc. If you open a terminal and run alsamixer, press F6 and select Audient iD14, it will report a broken pipe error. ALSA (or Pulseaudio) has no way of knowing how to allocate the outputs, so assumes all 4 detected outs are available, but also has no way of directing signal appropriately."
I would like to ask your help to establish what the best course of action would be.
Should I work on trying to fix this issue with a custom .asoundrc file, possibly using the multi plugin?
If that's not possible, what would writing a ALSA USB driver specifically for the Audient iD14 entail?
I would appreciate your thoughts and insights on this.
Kind regards,
Charles Mulder
