Gday, I was wondering whether anyone has tried using the Plugable USB Audio Adapter with the RPi. It's this one..http://plugable.com/2014/09/23/plugable-usb-external-audio-windows-mac-linux-chromebook

I'm trying to find a cheap solution for audio into PD, preferably below 10ms latency but not the end of the world if it isn't. If anyone has suggestions for a better solution, that'd be really awesome too! Cheers, James

I have one of these running on my rPi for use with RuneAudio and have had no real issues with the card after many months of usage. Just required some initial setup in RuneAudio, and very rarely the mixer levels reset and I need to do a quick 'alsamixer' followed by 'alsactl store' to put the sound levels back up to where I want them. I assume the Plugable you mention is just a little more expensive version of my cheap chinese card ...

  • Thanks Phil, that's good to know. I'm pretty interested about whether the mic input is laggy, have you tried a mic or just the output?

  • Sorry, because I use it purely for playback, I have not tried the mic output.
