I mean that in the verbose output above there’s nothing mentioned after the entry "capture". but in the output you pasted below it’s the same, so this obviously is the normal behaviour. > Is there any output after the lines you quoted, like > > fons@zita1:~> zita-a2j -d hw:1,0 -v > playback : not enabled > capture : > nchan : 2 > fsamp : 48000 > fsize : 256 > nfrag : 2 > format : S32_LE > Starting synchronisation. > -0.151 1.000057 0 > -0.007 1.000034 326 > -0.053 1.000046 327 > -0.114 1.000094 327 > 0.128 1.000019 328 > > etc. ? no, on both my computers there’s nothing printed after "Starting synchronization". > This problem is quite mysterious... > I've got zita-j2a running on one of my machines at work, with > a Digico 48-ch MADI interface for two months or so without > interruption.

I tried japa with that soundcard (Zoom H4n with usb connection): [christoph@x270 ~]$ japa -A -d hw:1 playback : nchan : 2 fsamp : 48000 fsize : 1024 nfrag : 2 format : S16_LE capture : nchan : 2 fsamp : 48000 fsize : 1024 nfrag : 2 format : S16_LE synced Connected to ALSA with 2 inputs and 2 outputs from the speaker of the device I can hear constant noise and its meters show constant input at around -10 db. in the little window which is opened I can also see some movements in the diagram when I gently tap the device’s microphones. so, yes: there’s plenty of signal. Maybe it’s related to my distribution, arch? I have no clue. in alsamixer there’s nothing to adjust for the H4n, it says: this device has no controls. so, indeed mysterious. > Ciao, > ciao & thanks & have a good day! christoph _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
