Some information (in particular, several GPIO bits) is still missing. + +This is the first testing version of the Maya44 driver released to the alsa-devel mailing list (Feb 5, 2008). + + +The following functions work, as tested by Rainer Zimmermann and Piotr Makowski: + +- playback and capture at all sampling rates +- input/output level +- crossmixing +- line/mic switch +- phantom power switch +- analogue monitor a.k.a bypass + + +The following functions *should* work, but are not fully tested: + +- Channel 3+4 analogue - S/PDIF input switching +- S/PDIF output +- all inputs/outputs on the M/IO/DIO extension card +- internal/external clock selection + + +*In particular, we would appreciate testing of these functions by anyone who has access to an M/IO/DIO extension card.* + + +Things that do not seem to work: + +- The level meters ("multi track") in 'alsamixer' do not seem to react to signals in (if this is a bug, it would probably be in the existing ICE1724 code). + +- Ardour 2.1 seems to work only via JACK, not using ALSA directly or via OSS. This still needs to be tracked down. + + +DRIVER DETAILS: + +the following files were added: + +pci/ice1724/maya44.c - Maya44 specific code +pci/ice1724/maya44.h +pci/ice1724/ice1724.patch +pci/ice1724/ice1724.h.patch - PROPOSED patch to ice1724.h (see SAMPLING RATES) +i2c/other/wm8776.c - low-level access routines for Wolfson WM8776 codecs +include/wm8776.h + + +Note that the wm8776.c code is meant to be card-independent and does not actually register the codec with the ALSA infrastructure. +This is done in maya44.c, mainly because some of the WM8776 controls are used in Maya44-specific ways, and should be named appropriately. + + +the following files were created in pci/ice1724, simply #including the corresponding file from the alsa-kernel tree: + +wtm.h +vt1720_mobo.h +revo.h +prodigy192.h +pontis.h +phase.h +maya44.h +juli.h +aureon.h +amp.h +envy24ht.h +se.h +prodigy_hifi.h + + +*I hope this is the correct way to do things.* + + +SAMPLING RATES: + +The Maya44 card (or more exactly, the Wolfson WM8776 codecs) allow a maximum sampling rate of 192 kHz for playback and 92 kHz for capture. + +As the ICE1724 chip only allows one global sampling rate, this is handled as follows: + +* setting the sampling rate on any open PCM device on the maya44 card will always set the *global* sampling rate for all playback and capture channels. + +* In the current state of the driver, setting rates of up to 192 kHz is permitted even for capture devices. + +*AVOID CAPTURING AT RATES ABOVE 96kHz*, even though it may appear to work. The codec cannot actually capture at such rates, meaning poor quality. + + +I propose some additional code for limiting the sampling rate when setting on a capture pcm device. However because of the global sampling rate, this logic would be somewhat problematic. + +The proposed code (currently deactivated) is in ice1712.h.patch, ice1724.c and maya44.c (in pci/ice1712). + + +SOUND DEVICES: + +PCM devices correspond to inputs/outputs as follows (assuming Maya44 is card #0): + +hw:0,0 input - stereo, analog input 1+2 +hw:0,0 output - stereo, analog output 1+2 +hw:0,1 input - stereo, analog input 3+4 OR S/PDIF input +hw:0,1 output - stereo, analog output 3+4 (and SPDIF out) + + +NAMING OF MIXER CONTROLS: + +(for more information about the signal flow, please refer to the block diagram on p.24 of the ESI Maya44 manual, or in the ESI windows software). + + +PCM: (digital) output level for channel 1+2 +PCM 1: same for channel 3+4 + +Mic Phantom+48V: switch for +48V phantom power for electrostatic microphones on input 1/2. + Make sure this is not turned on while any other source is connected to input 1/2. + It might damage the source and/or the maya44 card. + +Mic/Line input: if switch is is on, input jack 1/2 is microphone input (mono), otherwise line input (stereo). + +Bypass: analogue bypass from ADC input to output for channel 1+2.
