Raspberry Pi Project



This guide is for raspbian versions less than jessie... if you are using raspbian jessie or later see my other guide here


You can listen to audio from the PI but in order to record you need to use a sound card as the pi only has audio out. I used a USB plantronics as my sound card, and the following is a guide to have it set up and made your main sound card


Edit the alsa-base.conf file



Look for the line "" options snd-usb-audio index=-2 "", comment it out and add the following line



Now the next time the PI boots it will make the usb sound card the default one


Now we need to edit /etc/asound.conf



Replace all the text in that file with the following:



Reboot!!.....


When the system comes back online you can use the gui to adjust sound level or my favorite alsamixer
