Dale's Random Ramblings ;-)

This is an update of my previous post

As testing goes on, the .asoundrc file is getting more complexed in its setup. This is where we are up to now, we have 2 profiles going for ‘local’ and ‘DX’ and we select between the profiles by running in terminal

Local:

$ arecord -B 12000 -D local_eq_ -r 44100 -f S16_LE | aplay -B 12000 -D ladcomp

DX:

$ arecord -B 12000 -D dx_eq_ -r 44100 -f S16_LE | aplay -B 12000 -D ladcomp

And now for the dreaded .asoundrc file.

        }
}

pcm.plugequal {
        type equal;
        slave.pcm "plughw:3,0";
}

Note:
if you getting errors like

overrun!!! (at least 0.017 ms long)
underrun!!! (at least 1.208 ms long)
underrun!!! (at least 0.232 ms long)
overrun!!! (at least 0.001 ms long)
underrun!!! (at least 0.007 ms long)

You need to increase the -B option in arecord and or aplay in the run string
