[alsa-devel] problem with RME DSP MADI, kernel 2.6.38 and hdspmixer from git

Hi Adrian,

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I know this. But I find it confusing that, just by opening hdspmixer
the first time after loading the snd-hdspm module, all channels get routed
to 63/64, as this happens "under the hood". I understand though that this
routing makes more sense than the initial setting where you only hear
channel 63 and 64. Looking at the hdspmixer code, I don't see when this
happens but I will investigate a bit more so I fully understand this.

I am new to hdspmixer. I am looking for the TotalMix documentation now,
but your explanation below makes sense.

Okay. Thanks again,
