Summary: Only Problems with Surround Sound
Description:
Hi.
I've got a big problem ( like many other users of many other soundcards ).
My Surroundsound didn't work!
I've got the Terratec Aureon 5.1 Fun soundcard. At alsamixer, I haven't
got any LFE or Center Options ( why? there stands in the topic *MC6 ( for
6 channels! ) ).
Now I tried it with a .asoundrc. Result:
Now my Rear / Front / Center worked correctly at listening to mp3s, the
subwoofer ( lfe ) gives also high sound out, not only deep!!! thats a big
problem.
I tried it with the following .asoundrc =>
http://www.linux-development.org/nopaste/?800
now I found an entry at an wiki of alsa.opensrc.org , which contains
following:
---------------
Custom Routing of Signals to Surround Outputs
With a little .asoundrc hackery, you can easily route signals around any
way you like. See for example FAQ028 for an example of how to play a
stereo signal over booth front and rear speakers simultaneously. The
example can easily be adapted to suit your needs. FAQ028 tells us how to
route our "normal" stereo signals to 4 or 5 speakers. It would be nice to
process the signal for the subwoofer with a lowpass filter. Thats's where
the LADSPA plugins come in handy:
pcm.lowpass {
type ladspa
slave.pcm ...
path "/usr/lib/ladspa"
plugins [ {
label lpf
input {
controls [ 50 ]
}
} ]
}
This filter will cut off everything above 50 Hz. Only problem: How do I
send only one channel (a mixture of right and left channel) through this
filter? And where do I send the filtered signal? I have tried this setup:
# move channel 0 to channel 2
pcm.move0to2 {
type route
slave.pcm 3to6
slave.channels 3
ttable.0.2 1
}
# 3to6 has 3 input and 6 output channels
# the stereo signal is on ch. 0 and 1
# ch.0 is copied to 0 and 2 (front and rear)
# ch.1 is copied to 1 and 3 (front and rear)
# ch.0 and ch.1 will is mixed to ch.4 (center)
# ch.2 is routed to ch.5 (subwoofer)
pcm.3to6 {
type route
slave.pcm "surround51"
slave.channels 6
ttable.0.0 1
ttable.1.1 1
ttable.0.2 1
ttable.1.3 1
ttable.0.4 0.5
ttable.1.4 0.5
ttable.2.5 1
}
This seems to work from the lowpass filter to the output (I have tried
aplay -D plug:lowpass sound.wav). But still the question - How to I get
the data of one channel to the lowpass filter?
---------------
my question, how can I set up this lowpassfilter only for my LFE channel??
I need it!

Your surround sound (playback of 5.1 audio) is working perfectly - what you
want is upmixing of stereo sounds to 5.1.
This is not really appropriate for a bug report as it's not a bug. Please
post your question to the alsa-user list.

I've got a big problem ( like many other users of many other soundcards ).

----------------------------------------------------------------------
rlrevell - 03-15-06 23:13
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Never mind - I just googled and to my amazement I cannot find a single
example of an .asoundrc that does stereo->5.1 upmixing with low pass
filter for the sub.
I do think it's a bug that we don't provide a single example of this
seemingly common config.
