I believe in opensource because I'm curious and I don't like secrets. Following an idea from another alsa developer that answered me before you I'll keep analog mixer and soundcard separated. I need also usb as external soundcard (I'm sorry Niels...). So I'll get notepad 124fx http://www.soundcraft.com/products/product.aspx?pid=172) and usb soundcard from http://www.esi-audio.com/products/maya44usb/ . The music is my hobby and so I'll go on this way. I have seen that soundcraft writes really nice user guides and I think it is an opportunity to improve my knowledge in this field. To add a sound path from PS3 to active speaker I'll get something similar to this one: http://www.ambery.com/2hddodtsdihd.html . Here you are a "fantastic PA and Home theatre system", where the stereo PA functionality is preferred in respect of HT usage. http://www.opensurf.it/PA_HT.odp http://www.opensurf.it/PA_HT.pdf Any consideration? For the first step I'll have 2X8030A Genelec, Notepad 124fx, Linux PC, TV Bravia, CD player, Headphones. Maybe, to do also multichannel 5+1 from, should be better another soundcard than Maya44usb (I have now an awful 7+1 Creative X-fi that is not flat at all). Then I'll add the sub, then ... If anybody wants to modify the odp file is welcomed. regards, Raffaele www.opensurf.it _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
