franta-hg@10: * The support for Pioneer DJ DJM-250MK2 (an external USB sound card / mixer) was added to the Linux (kernel) by these patches:
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * - https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/sound/usb?id=73d8c94084341e2895169a0462dbc18167f01683 (playback)
franta-hg@10: * - https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/sound/usb?id=14335d8b9e1a2bf006f9d969a103f9731cabb210 (recording)
franta-hg@10: * - https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/sound/usb?id=cdc01a1558dedcee3daee7e1802d0349a07edb87 (mixer setup)
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * These patches are enough for playback and for recording from post CH faders.
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * However this mixer is somehow incapacitated and if we want to record the raw signal from the PHONO or LINE channels,
franta-hg@10: * we only get silence. This feature is important for DVS (Digital Vinyl Systems) setups where
franta-hg@10: * the timecode signal from special control vinyls flows from mixer to the computer
franta-hg@10: * where it is interpreted in a software like MIXXX and used for controlling the playback of files on our computer.
franta-hg@10: * The signal (usually music) from these files flows back to the mixer and then to speakers and headphones.
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * To make this work and enjoy all the features of the device we have bought, we need to tell the mixer that we
franta-hg@10: * want the signal instead of silence on given channels. And this is the purpose of the djm-fix utility and
franta-hg@10: * it is done by sending some magic packet to the mixer.
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Implementation of this magic in the AlsaBridge.cpp file is based on publicly available documentation
franta-hg@10: * that can be found at .
franta-hg@10: * This page pointed me to the proper hash function (according to the constants, it is bit uncommon but publicly known Fowler–Noll–Vo hash function, FNV)
franta-hg@10: * and some magic bits. I wrote this standalone C++ program that talks with the mixer over MIDI SysEx messages and does the magic.
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * When this program is started, it finds the mixer and makes it fully working.
franta-hg@10: * It needs to be running all the time, otherwise we will get silence on the PHONO/LINE channels again.
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Install dependencies:
franta-hg@10: * apt install mercurial make pkg-config g++ libasound2-dev # in Debian or Ubuntu (it will be similar in other distributions)
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Download djm-fix:
franta-hg@10: * hg clone https://hg.frantovo.cz/midi/djm-fix/ # primary source
franta-hg@10: * hg clone https://hg.globalcode.info/midi/djm-fix/ # or we can use this mirror
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Compile:
franta-hg@10: * make # we can skip this step, it will be compiled on the first run
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Run:
franta-hg@11: * make run # in most cases
franta-hg@11: * build/djm-fix 'Pioneer DJ.*' # or provide custom name pattern (regular expression) to select the proper card
franta-hg@10: *
franta-hg@10: * Stop:
franta-hg@10: * press Ctrl+C
franta-hg@11: *
franta-hg@11: * Look for updates in the Mercurial repositories and at .
