I dream of being able to control my ATARI ST, my C64, my NES's, my gameboy's my sk-1's, speak n spells, and all the other wild MIDI instruments in my studio.. all with my tracker.

Controlling my other synths with Milkytracker is like a dream come true

MilkyTracker Community / Re: Making SDL with ALSA use a specific soundcard when multiple available

Do you also have a cure for *buntu seemingly randomly selecting the "default" audio device on each boot?

You can set a fixed index for each alsa device in your modprobe configurations in the /etc/modprobe.d directory (that's at least the path in Debian, see man modprobe for more information). The "default" device is normally set to hw:0.

Example: You want your Creative Soundblaster Live (snd-emu10k1) on index 0 (hw:0), your external Terractec Aureon USB (snd-usb-audio) on index 1 and the virtual MIDI device (snd-virmidi) on index 2.

Create a file /etc/modprobe.d/myalsasettings (or something like that) and insert the following:

Code: [Select]

options snd-emu10k1 index=0
options snd-usb-audio index=1 pid=0x0028
options snd-virmidi index=2

Reload the corresponding modules with rmmod/modprobe or just reboot and your done.

To check if your cards got the right index you could use aplay -l or cat /proc/asound/cards.

You can get the product ID for your USB device with lsusb:

Code: [Select]

$ lsusb | grep -i terratec
