	A project in which I have a very minor consultationary role needs to record a 3 or 4 channel sound from microphones. We have an Edirol UA101 with 8 in/8 out, but so have have failed on both Windows and Linux. Windows will only give stereo and arecord on Linux does not seem to offer the 3 inputs arecord -l gives card 1: UA101 [UA-101], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 arecord -D hw:UA101 -f S32_LE -r 44100 -c 1 something.wav gives an error related to channel count. Has anyone any advice? ==John ffitch

	Have you tried Ardour? It's very flexible with routing.

	Might sound crazy, but can you not just use Csound? On 12 December 2012 14:59, peiman khosravi wrote: > Have you tried Ardour?

	For Linux, you will need to be sure that the device is loaded as a USB2.0 HIgh Speed device, rather than 1.1 Full Speed in order to use more than 4 channels total (including both input and output channels). Full speed does not transfer data fast enough. With 4 channels in and no channels out, you should hypothetically be able to pull this off in USB1.1 if the device will allow it. lsusb and dmesg will be helpful in verifying the connection speed. Be sure the device is set up for High Speed and not Full Speed, and be sure that it is connected to a USB2.0 or higher port.

	Also, being able to open with exactly 3 channels in is unlikely to be supported by the device, though there is a chance 4 in can be configured then you can just ignore one.

	What software DAW are you going into? Do you have the ASIO for the Edirol selected in the prefs?
