Well, I sorted out the routing problems within my AW4416, so now I can record multiple tracks from the AW4416 to the PC via ecasound and JACK, but, still having a bit of trouble. My procedure so far is: # start ecasound, as for example: (as root) ecasound -c -r -b:128 -a:1,2 -i jack -o drums.wav -a:3,4 -i jack -o guitar.wav (JACK is also running as root) * Type "engine-launch" in ecasound. * In qjackctl, on the connections screen, connect the hammerfall's capture channels (corresponding to AW4416 busses) to ecasound's inputs. * Type "start" in ecasound, and start playback on the AW4416. This works, but it seems small sections of the audio are being dropped here and there, so the result is that the transferred data is mostly correct, but is kind of "jumpy" as it skips these apparently dropped sections, which are short, but definitely noticeable. I suppose it could be some issue with my OS, scheduling, etc., or possibly cable problems. That latter I can rule out by moving my computer, and using different, shorter cables, I guess.
