[chuck-users] Multiple Output

[Stefan Blixt]

OK. I can never remember what the default values for things are, and I think
it's best to started with something as simple as possible. I suggest you
stick with this program:

SinOsc a => dac.chan(0); // send sine wave to the fourth mono output

*

while(true) {
    1::second => now;}

Now,start it up like any plain old chuck programs, without trying to
make use of multiple outputs or anything:

chuck test.ck

Do you hear a low sine wave? Fine, the app works. Now try the same
program with a different setting:

chuck --out4 test.ck

Do you still hear the sine wave? Do you get an error message, and if
so, which one? Do you get silence? Do you have some kind of meter LEDs
on your soundcard (or in a mixer program on your host), and if so, can
you see any of the meters going up? What soundcard are you using by
the way?

Depending on what your answers are to the questions above, you may
move ahead with specifying --adc and some number. If you got the above
working, just increase the number of outputs to what you want. If you
can't get it working, post the output of chuck --probe here and I or
someone might get some other idea...
