M-audio Transit Usb Driver
Gianira Jardin
I plug it in, lsusb recognizes it as Midiman. Normal, but when I sudo alsaconf, it doesn't detect the card. It's making that classic faint static sound that means that drivers for it hasn't been loaded yet.
Do you guys have your m-audio transit working? I gut that for my birthday and I really like it, but would love to use it with Archlinux! The package in the AUR doesn't work for me, already left a comment.
just plug in the transit device. Then note the Bus ID und Device ID by using the command lsusb.
Now you can flash the firmware to the device with the following command as root:
madfuload -3 -f path/to/firmware -D /dev/bus/usb/BusID/DeviceID
If there are problems left, like autoload of modules (I guess that won't work here, also doesn't with my brother's Edirol UA25, which works out of the box, but snd-usb-audio isn't loaded automatically)
It was quite a while ago, when i used the transit the last time. Strangely i get this error too when loading the firmware. It didn't appear before. Nevertheless the usb device works. You can test it by catting the file /proc/asound/cards.
Damn, we almost have the same soundcards (I don't allow the pcsp and modem to be loaded)
Now it only has to work! I tried to play a soundfile over this soundcard, but didn't hear anything. But I guess I have to do a little more research
The output volume levels, right after loading the firmware, are so low, that you can't hear anything. You have to adjust it by alsamixer -c 1. Try pushing it nearly to the top.
And you have to somehow redirect the sound to the usb sound card, but that depends on what desktop environment you are using (you were using KDEmod??? if I remember correctly).
Otherwise there was a command to redirect all sound output to an given sound card, but i can't remember. May be it comes to my mind again :-)
Now I think I got it working perfectly, it works as normal ALSA device, I'm listening to music via mpd right now with the Transit and Jack also seems to work quite well, did some test recordings. I also installed oss4 for a short moment and it's also being autodetected. ossinfo shows the device, osstest plays the testsound in the right order and .. well, in the end it didn't work anymore, don't know what I've done wrong, but as I told before, using linux means to be dependend on alsa in some way, really sad. But still, I'm pretty satisfied with this little device I'm really thinking about completely deactivating my internal card now.. We'll see
It works out of the box, but there is a strong clipping in the sound, which is very dangerous for speakers. Do you have an idea what the reason for that could be and how I could fix this? Seems like the input gain is a little bit too high...
Hey, I own the madfuload package and want to fix it. Recently though, when I plug my Transit into my computer, nothing at all shows up. lsusb doesn't report anything, and nothing new appears in /dev. What is the deal? :S
Same here, still everything works as it should, except of automatic loading of the firmware via HAL, but that really doesn't matter at all Would be cool if you could fix it ... Do you have a chance to try our transit on another pc? Maybe it's broken?!
Yeah ... I realized that, sorry. BUT! I figured it out and made a new package for madfuload that works 100%! That means that the new udev rules work, so just plug it in and it comes to life. Go try it, it's in the AUR.
I bought the transit as my first and last m-audio product. The player barely works at all in vista/windows7 and sometimes the system disables the firmware so i have to manually load it in windows. Their forum/site is beyond pathetic in terms of support, they've been promising to fix all the 64 bit driver errors since 2007 (not sure about the date).
Hello
I have Audacity 2.2.1 on xp with an m-audio transit usb audio interface. This has a optical digital input and a usb output to the pc and it works brilliantly with Audacity with the slight problem that I would like to reduce the gain a bit but the input gain slider control does not work at all. The xp driver I have with the m-audio will allow a 10 and 20 percent gain but no reduction.
Is there any way I can cut the gain a bit.
Thanks

Thank you all for the help. I have a much better understanding of Audacity now, it is a brilliant program and I will use it more now and not fear the yellow on the recording level.
Thanks again
All the best
