BTW … the drums sequence has been contributed by @Micki and i used without permission. Anyway, i should be forbidden to play any instrument, or at less to record tracks and upload to Internet …

Sorry guys!

YAAAY! @jofemodo to the rescue!!! :laughing:

Thanks so much! Works like a charm now! (Cue the AMSynth Victory Riff.)

Cheers!

Notice the not so subtle range of alteration, then an audio record at the same time… ! :smiley:

Hi @wyleu !
Don’t forget to show the UI view… :wink:

Thanks

OK! Here the UI shots:

zynthian_ui_mixer_layer

zynthian_ui_mixer_control

FYI, i’m using a HifiBerry DAC+ADC PRO, and the 2 selectors at right allows to control the “input mode”: balanced/unbalanced for each channel. I know, the “input gain” control should be “per-channel” … :wink:

Enjoy!

And if that doesn’t show? I am not using latest image, but updated everything

22

Try to delete the “last snapshot” … although it should work anyway.
If not, take a look to the logs …

yes, the problem is, that MIXER is layer 0.
Old Snapshots won’t work. I have preload-snapshot selected…

24

OK! I will see if i can fix it …

BTW, i’ve updated the wiki’s documentation with the new features:

Zynthian UI Users Guide - V1/V4 - ZynthianWiki

Feel free to edit and improve :wink:

25

It should be solved now :wink:

Hello,

This is about Mixer layer.
With V2 kit with DAC+ sound card, under Mixer menu, I can see much more settings splitted into 4 pages (MX#1 to MX#4) than in post New features: Mixer Panel + MIDI player BPM control.

As a not so familiar with alsa user, It is not easy to figure out how to set these parameters (de-emphazing, filters, ramp up/down, …).
Would it be possible to have a description of each setting and a possibility to come back to default configuration in case we messed-up something ?

Simply go to webconf audio config, click “save” and reboot. This will reduce the number of mixer controllers shown in the UI :wink:

A configuration tool for the mixer is on the way …

Yes I did it, but still I have a lot of mixers or settings.

Am I doing something wrong ?

Delete the default/last snapshot and reboot …
You can simply “disable” the “Restore last state on startup” feature on webconf UI options, reboot and enable again …

It didn’t remove the additionnal settings.

Not a big concern, It seems that these settings are not impacting the sound so much.
Just that I want to understand what is their purpose. Probably I need to learn more about alsa and Hiffiberry.

Having digital volume control is nice anyway.

32

If you saved the audio settings in webconf and delete the default/last-state snapshot, it should only show the controllers configured in webconf.

33

Got it !

I saved kit V2+ again in web conf, rebooted and now I only have two mixers : Digital and Analogue on/off.

:slight_smile:

Today i firstly saw the “MIXER” in the display.
I only see MX#1 with PCM. I can control it perfecty, also with CC-Controller via Midi-learning.
So I´m looking forward to use the Mixer-Edit-Tool (that´s on the way :sunglasses: )

Or is it possible right now to configure the Mixer-Display for
Behringer UCA-222, Audio-Input-Volume?

It would be very helpful, if I can configure the drums-vol-poti and the drums-bpm-poti also in Mixer-Display… :face_with_monocle: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Last news: a lot of hanging notes …try to delete MIXER
