Audio loopback cable driver#

Now available in RSS and ATOM flavors too. A Virtual Audio Cable - An Audio Loopback Driver. (If there is a package you would like to see featured here, go to the userinfo page and follow the directions there to submit your entry.) More information on this package can be found on the Debian web site. Some programs require the '-timing' option, see the man page for details. ItвЂ™s supposed to be easy, but the loopback audio channel never made a sound. The internal loopback channels and cable routing method, both failed to bring a guitars wet sounds back into AUM or Endlesss. Thus vsound provides a virtual audio loopback cable.ДЄll this is a long way of saying vsound lets you record the audio output of any program compiled to use OSS, i.e. Just tried this on an iD4 mkii, and hours later have given up. The technical limits are only restricted through the Operating System.

This is precisely what vsound does, using a trick called LD_PRELOAD. LoopBeAudio A Virtual Audio Cable - An Audio Loopback Driver LoopBeAudio is a virtual audio device to transfer audio between computer programs, digitally, without any quality loss. By redirecting /dev/dsp away from the sound card one can record the byte stream generated by any program. The OSS part of the Linux kernel provides the special file /dev/dsp to let programs access the sound card sounds are generated by writing to /dev/dsp. Want your program to talk to a terminal? Just have it read/write from a special file. One of the deep abstractions underlying UNIX and the operating systems it influenced, including GNU/Linux, is that everything should be a file.

It uses sox to convert and save the raw data into the desired file format and can help to convert real audio files to some other non-proprietary format. This program allows you to record the output of any standard OSS program (one that uses /dev/dsp for sound) without having to modify or recompile the program.
