Re: lexicon omega: 2 channels instead of 4 ?

ALSA: cannot set channel count to 4 for capture ALSA: cannot configure capture channel if JACK cannot start with 4 capture channels, try starting with only 2 channels and add the other 2 later This interface will probably have 2 subdevices in ALSA (see aplay -l ) each subdevice will be capable of 2...

Re: recording pulseaudio output

check volume levels for the pulseaudio sinks pactl list sinks | grep -e 'Name' -e 'Volume' presumably null-sink is by-passing level control for regular sink set with level lower than 100% would get same level for recording if regular sink was set to 100%, but likely would be too loud for comfortable...

Re: Can the Low-Latency & KX Studios various software be installed on Lubuntu?

Lubuntu is good lightweight desktop and was a good base for a DAW when i used it

Should be not much difference to Ubuntu or Mint to add KX repositories and install

i find JACK works better at 48kHz compared to 44.1kHz with most audio interfaces

Re: Peavey USB-P DAC

This appears to be a line level audio DAC device has USB connection from PC, 2*XLR outputs & a mono/stereo switch no hardware controls like some interfaces so level settings should be in alsamixer 'this unit complies with part 15 of the FCC rules' = class-compliant if it is visible in ALSA, sugg...
