26 Hi Jack,
27
28 I don't wanted to pollute my posting with non-Linux details...but here
29 they are:
30
31 I habe a Teensy 3.6 by PJRC (=>https://www.pjrc.com/), which has an
32 USB-port. This port can be switched between a lot of USB-devices...
33 ...one of them is an USB-audio device (output).
34 The MK66FX1M0VMD18 uC has beside an FPU a DSP block.
35 With a certain (open source) firmware this chip can be used as an
36 synthesizer.
37
38 To cut costs I wanted no USB dongle to play the sound ... I wanted
39 to use my Linux PC as "Mega DAC"...so to say.
40
41 Question is:
42 How can I create such an "receiver" for USB Audio signals to play
43 them live with my PC?
44
45 Cheers!
46 Meino
