Thanks for the help. Still can't figure out why the sound gets all mucked up when both programs are running, even completely disconnected from each other. It will be interesting to learn how to master, assuming I can figure out why the sound gets so messed up. Tried everything suggested here and nothing worked... *sigh* _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-user
