Hi all,

my ALLO Piano 2.1 has arrived last week.

At the moment i'm about to integrate the controls in Rune.

So far all seems to work fine with my patched kernel.
Mode and crossover is available via alsamixer.

Brilliant - I thought I was going to have to use Volumio !

My 2.1 arrived on friday (tx Allo) but I won't get much time to play till after Xmas

Frank - will your code be available in the nightlies ? or will we have to add it via the terminal ?
I'm afraid I havn't the smarts to help you with the coding but I'll test it as soon as you make it available

I have trouble with setting the frequencies higher than 90Hz.
60, 70, 80 and 90Hz work, but when setting it to 100Hz ALSA crashes instantly.

Setting the Piano to 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 works.

Any ideas?

Frank

Excellent news; I should complete my new subwoofer/amp over the Christmas break, so it'd be great to drive it with Rune.

hello Frank,
this will not work from Alsa, we need to integrate directly.
I should put you in touch with our engineers, check your email.

Hi Audiohrdwr,

After fixing a bug in the driver all works fine (see my pull request on github).
All settings can be changed within "alsamixer" and "amixer" without problems.
Changing the "Lowpass" and "Subwoofer mode" works on the fly.

So now i have to integrate this in our UI and find a way to implement volume for the subwoofer.

Excellent work, Frank. Can't wait to try it...

Don't most subwoofers have their own volume control on the cabinet?

If you need another beta tester, I'm here all ready to go.
