In Reply to: RE: Tuning Linux/MPD/Alsa for best sound on ALIX processor posted by phofman on June 16, 2012 at 10:02:32:
With a little help from the mpdpup site we settled on nrpacks=20 as the ideal setting. This can be changed quite easily using modprobe -r to unload the driver. From the command line, the following sequence gets you there.
killall mpd
modprobe -r snd-usb-audio
modprobe snd-usb-audio nrpacks=20
mpd
Sound difference between default, 1 and 20 is fairly pronounced. Thanks phofman for surfacing this parameter.
