Eric, thanks so much for your attention to this. Good catch on the type of quote! I changed them to single quotes and also took out the '\' separaters because greater-thans (>) crept in. And... sound happened! But we're not quite there on collecting the separate streams. The ALSA plug listed for output (pcm.testout4) contains 4 channels but I only get sound on two of them and it seems to be the whole signal. I must let this rest until tonight, but wanted to a) report the progress and, b) show you the screen log. Hopefully we're close. Once a 2-way crossover works, then I want to expand to a 3-way. ...eventually... Cheers!
