41 transmission/receive-mode , only 28 are transmitted/received

73 The Card supports the readout of the actual Buffer-pointer,
74 where DMA reads/writes. Since of the bulk mode of PCI it is only

96 ----------
98 Since DSP-MADI-Mixer has 8152 Fader, it does not make sense to
99 use the standard mixer-controls, since this would break most of
100 (especially graphic) ALSA-Mixer GUIs. So Mixer control has be
101 provided by a 2-dimensional controller using the
102 hwdep-interface.
104 Also all 128+256 Peak and RMS-Meter can be accessed via the
105 hwdep-interface. Since it could be a performance problem always
106 copying and converting Peak and RMS-Levels even if you just need
108 needed some driver-guru can implement a memory-mapping of mixer
109 or peak-meters over ioctl, or also to do only copying and no
110 conversion. A test-application shows the usage of the controller.
112 * Latency Controls --- not implemented !!!
115 Note: Within the windows-driver the latency is accessible of a
116 control-panel, but buffer-sizes are controlled with ALSA from
117 hwparams-calls and should not be changed in run-state, I did not
121 * System Clock -- suspended !!!!
123 * Name -- "System Clock Mode"
125 * Access -- Read Write
127 * Values -- "Master" "Slave"
130 !!!! This is a hardware-function but is in conflict with the
131 Clock-source controller, which is a kind of ALSA-standard. I
132 makes sense to set the card to a special mode (master at some
133 frequency or slave), since even not using an Audio-application
135 Clock-source-controller instead !!!!
139 * Name -- "Sample Clock Source"
141 * Access -- Read Write
143 * Values -- "AutoSync", "Internal 32.0 kHz", "Internal 44.1 kHz",
148 Speed-mode or Slave (Autosync). Also see "Preferred Sync Ref"
151 !!!! This is no pure hardware function but was implemented by
152 ALSA by some ALSA-drivers before, so I use it also. !!!
155 * Preferred Sync Ref
157 * Name -- "Preferred Sync Reference"
159 * Access -- Read Write
161 * Values -- "Word" "MADI"
164 Within the Auto-sync-Mode the preferred Sync Source can be
168 Note: Since MADI has a much higher bit-rate than word-clock, the
169 card should synchronise better in MADI Mode. But since the
170 RME-PLL is very good, there are almost no problems with
171 word-clock too. I never found a difference.
176 * Name -- "TX 64 channels mode"
178 * Access -- Read Write
180 * Values -- 0 1
182 Using 64-channel-modus (1) or 56-channel-modus for
183 MADI-transmission (0).
187 Note: This control is for output only. Input-mode is detected

240 Here as a first value the channel-index is taken to get/set the
241 corresponding mixer channel, where 0-63 are the input to output
242 fader and 64-127 the playback to outputs fader. Value 0

248 mixer-matrix is implemented from playback to output.
