Mixers

[Tony Baechler]

Hi,

Yes, but does Linux support a mixer setup like you're describing?  I 
know it will support a Sound Blaster Audigy, but I'm not familiar with 
the other card.  I have a very good sound card designed for recording 
but it only has Windows drivers.  I'm completely unfamiliar with using a 
mixer and I have no idea if it works in Linux.  I know ALSA supports 
most sound devices and it has its own alsamixer, but I don't know much 
about hardware mixers except that they've been recommended and a basic 
idea of how they work.  Pointers to articles on setting up a nice audio 
system with accessible tools in Linux would be greatly appreciated.  The 
keyword here is accessible because I don't know of any currently 
accessible GUI audio tools for Linux at the moment.
