From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Looking for a linux compatible streaming solution (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello, I have currently two seperate pc's.My daily driver running Ubuntu and one windows machine for playing pubg. The Linux system hosts discord and also occasionally games.

In my current solution I use a simple analog audio mixer to control the outputs of both devices. Unfortunately I get pretty mean coil whine effects from the windows machine when the game is running. This is annoying for me, but even noticeable for persons in the discord.

I fixed it by using the optical line out from the windows PC in combination with an external DAC and then back to the analog mixer... This works but the setup looks more and more like a birds nest.

Now I am looking for a solution that allows me to :

mix digital toslink with sound of the Linux machine in one device
I need real world buttons/wheels to adapt the sound of both machines independently and without software

Any ideas?

Cheers, M.

I have several audio interfaces with usb connections and they all work with Linux (they just identify themselves as "usb audio device"), so chances are this device will work perfectly?
