I know I should buy a more sophisticated card but boards like the Terratec DMX6fire24/96 or M-Audio Delta 410 have prices here in Holland which are way over the prices you pay (€189,00 is the cheapest). Moreover I use it to edit using headphones as audio output for computers is, in my opinion very bad or you use a pair of studio monitors (I use Yamaha 60 W as output boxes for my E-piano for use in small rooms. As I'm a jazz-pianist and people prefer to listen so you don't need decibels to go over crowd noise!). But those are expensive. My jack settings are: /usr/bin/jackd -dalsa -dhw:0 -r44100 -p1024 -n2.
The humble hda can perform ridiculously well for what it is. I'd recommend replacing the '-n2' with '-S -n3'. The '-p1024' should be able to go down to '-p256' (or even lower) as well. cheers. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
