The ALSA Utilities package contains various utilities which are useful for controlling your sound card.

Short Descriptions

*'''aconnect''': is a utility for connecting and disconnecting two existing ports in the ALSA sequencer system.
*'''alsaconf''': is a configuration tool which tries to detect the sound cards on your system and write a suitable configuration file for ALSA. This program is incompatible with udev and hotplug.
*'''alsactl''': is used to control advanced settings for the ALSA sound card drivers.
*'''alsamixer''': is an ncurses-based mixer program for use with the ALSA sound card drivers.
*'''amidi''': is used to read from and write to ALSA RawMIDI ports.
*'''amixer''': allows command-line control of the mixers for the ALSA sound card drivers.
*'''aplay''': is a command-line soundfile player for the ALSA sound card drivers.
*'''aplaymidi''': is a command-line utility that plays the specified MIDI file(s) to one or more ALSA sequencer ports.
*'''arecord''': is a command-line soundfile recorder for the ALSA sound card drivers.
*'''arecordmidi''': is a command-line utility that records a standard MIDI file from one or more ALSA sequencer ports.
*'''aseqdump''': is a command-line utility that prints the sequencer events it receives as text.
*'''aseqnet''': is an ALSA sequencer client which sends and receives event packets over a network.
*'''iecset''': is a small utility to set or dump the IEC958 (or so-called “S/PDIF”) status bits of the specified sound card via the ALSA control API.
*'''speaker-test''': is a command-line speaker test tone generator for ALSA.

==aconnect==
is a utility for connecting and disconnecting two existing ports in the ALSA sequencer system.

ja l'he utilitzat profusament per connectar clients ALSA
==alsaconf==

==alsactl==
is used to control advanced settings for the ALSA sound card drivers.

<pre>
store <card #> save current driver setup for one or each soundcards
to configuration file
restore <card #> load current driver setup for one or each soundcards
from configuration file
init <card #> initialize driver to a default state
names <card #> dump information about all the known present (sub-)devices
into configuration file (DEPRECATED)
</pre>

<pre>
$ sudo alsactl store 0
</pre>
guarda la configuració del driver de la targeta #0 al fitxer /var/lib/alsa/asound.state

Per carregar la configuració del driver:
<pre>
$ alsactl restore 0
</pre>

==alsamixer==
is an ncurses-based mixer program for use with the ALSA sound card drivers.
<pre>
$ alsamixer --help
AlsaMixer v1.0.18
Usage: alsamixer [-h] [-c <card: 0...7>] [-D <mixer device>] [-g] [-s] [-V <view>] [-a <abst>]

$ alsamixer
</pre>
Apareix una interfície gràfica basada amb ncurses, i amb el cursor es pot canviar els valors.

==amidi==
<pre>
$ amidi --help
Usage: amidi options

-h, --help this help
-V, --version print current version
-l, --list-devices list all hardware ports
-L, --list-rawmidis list all RawMIDI definitions
-p, --port=name select port by name
-s, --send=file send the contents of a (.syx) file
-r, --receive=file write received data into a file
-S, --send-hex="..." send hexadecimal bytes
-d, --dump print received data as hexadecimal bytes
-t, --timeout=seconds exits when no data has been received
for the specified duration
-a, --active-sensing don't ignore active sensing bytes
</pre>

Està documentat a [[Amidi:_enviar_missatges_MIDI_des_de_la_shell]], on s'aprèn a enviar missatges MIDI des de la línia de comandes. A més, s'explica què són els ports midi virtuals i se'n configura un per fer sonar el que envio a través de la línia de comandes al fluidsynth.

==amixer==
allows command-line control of the mixers for the ALSA sound card drivers.

Available commands:
scontrols show all mixer simple controls
scontents show contents of all mixer simple controls (default command)
sset sID P set contents for one mixer simple control
sget sID get contents for one mixer simple control
controls show all controls for given card
contents show contents of all controls for given card
