[FFADO-user] Where do i get Version FFADO 2.999.0-1807

[Tobi K. <sup...@ya...>]

Hello there,

I updated my system which was running 10.04Studio. After hard days of Setup and Driver compilation finally my Presonus Firestudio Tube worked. I do not know what i did to achive this. But this vendorID stuff here helped:

http://ffado.org/?q=node/503

Now i tried 11.04, 11.10, and Tango Studio. In 11.04 i got it running but it was unstable (PDF reading, scrolling in Firefox, scrolling anywhere) braugt X runs. In 10.04 it worked great. Conclusion i think its the -RT Kernel. But now i think ffado from the trunk is somehow tooooo new (with old/new firewire support changed somehow), so adding the vendor stuff to configuration etc. compiling installing 8wit prefix=/usr) doesn't work anymore. ffado-dbus-server throws me an error "didnot suceed in 20 trys or so). Now i want to install Tango with the driver version mentioned above from SVN trunk, i think that could work. BUT WHERE DO I GET THIS VERSION ??? ;) Any help would be great. Also it would be grat to add the Presonus Firestudio to the "reported to work" List, because it works great, WHEN it works....;)

Greetz, Tobi

Yes, the mixer in ffado-mixer doesn't care about stereo at all. Its mixing 
mono-channels. This might sound bad when you want to mix stereo-to-stereo and 
even when you want mono-to-stereo with a volume and a pan pot.
But it gains when you want to mix more then stereo. And its not really meant 
as a full featured mixing console.

Nope, the mixer mixes what it gets. You decide what that is by using the 
crossbar-router. As stated several times: The mixers inputs are outputs fpr 
the router, the mixers outputs are inputs for the router. How you connect 
these is up to you.

Its inputs and outputs, correct. Altough its not necessarily hw-ins and -
outs;-)

You click-and-drag.

Actually the router and the mixer are almost the same. Both send audio across 
a big routing-table. The mixer can do any arbitrary mixes, the router can only 
route one input per output (but one input can go to more then one outputs). 
The router is a mixing-matrix where the coefficients are either 0 or 1 but only 
one 1 per output.

PS: Yes, I know the VU-meters on the front react kind of strange. I haven't 
figured that out yet...

Have fun,

Arnold
