#fireface — Public Fediverse posts

I have recently started experiencing occasional short dropouts in music playback via my #usb #rme #fireface #audiointerface on #arch #linux.

This is what journalctl says whenever such a dropout occurs:
```
pipewire[1606]: spa.alsa: front:0p: snd_pcm_drop: No such device
pipewire[1606]: spa.alsa: front:0p: close failed: No such device
gsd-media-keys[1865]: Unable to get default sink
```

Do any of you know where I could start to look for potential causes?

@nielso @patricklang I use a #rme #fireface UFX with an ADI-8 DS MkIII connected via #adat and can use 18 input channels with #pipewire. I have heard that other people have problems with RME on #linux, but for me it works like a charm.

Blissful moments working on the computer in the #studio, listening to my favorite tracks of 2024 through my #linuxaudio #workstation via the still amazing #rme #fireface UFX converter, my #lakepeople G100 #headphoneamp and ATH-R70x #headphones from #audiotechnica. 😇

My #rme #fireface #ufx only offers 12 of 22 inputs in #usb #classcompliant mode on #linux. I can only use all 22 inputs if I use the pro audio profile. Unfortunately I get digital artifacts with the latter. #linuxaudio
Luckily I do not need all the inputs in parallel. 🫣

TIL that for very flexible minimal-latency Input/Output routing of #audio signals, buying a (analog or digital) #mixer with multiple buses seems like the obvious choice, but there are also (USB) audio interfaces which support internal routing! For example #Arturia’s #AudioFuse line, or the #RME #Fireface UCX. Once configured, they can even run without a computer. Some even have internal EQ & FX.

Now, is there one with internal #sidechain compression? I’d _love_ that. Any suggestions?
