Blue Snowball not working with Non-Daw/Carla
Posted: Thu Apr 26, 2018 6:19 am
Hi, I'm having no luck recording with the Blue Snowball USB mic when using it within non and carla. So far I've tried a few things like verifying it works within osx, and checking if pulse and lsusb see the mic. They do and it does work on mac. However, I cannot get it to capture sound on non-timeline. Pulse audio verifies a signal being received on the meter when checked on volume control (gnome).
I'm using jack and carla, and while carla shows no input other than system capture 1 and 2, Jack allows me to switch interfaces to the blue snowball although it has no difference on input and output during recording or playback.
I've seen a thread on manjaro (I use arch) that states a file called ~/.asoundrc could be messed with to use the mic, however I don't have that file. I wanted to see if anyone here has found a solution before I create it... Has anyone had a similar problem with a usb mic?
