Multiple sound cards

In the hope of adding extra inputs/outputs to an existing zynthian setup. E.g.: On a V5 kit, to add any generic USB audio interface and to use it in combination of the existing internal sound card in the V5.

What about using either :

  • zita-ajbridge
    • zita-a2j
    • zita-j2a
  • alsa
    • alsa_in
    • alsa_out

Does anyone here have a reliable success|failure story to share ?

I started this thread to prevent necroposting in the one bellow.

But they still keep me locked in the dungeon with only a scrap of shoe leather to mop the dregs of the avian broth that is served every other week, if I have produced sufficient code. Double portion for Christmas was my punishment!
