Properly handle ctag overlay

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Shall we add the overlay by default to uEnv.txt and then whoever wants to use those pins for something else (e.g.: quadrature encoders) disables it?

Also @henrix what overlay should we use ? We have an old one here but I see you have two more in here. What happens if we load the 16ch version when only the FACE is available?

TODO: enable it by default in uEnv.txt.

Right, it should be enabled in the uEnv.txt.

For Bela, this overlay should be used.
The other overlays are for ALSA.
If the 16ch is enabled, the master board (i.e. face) can be still used as long as the master board is responsible for clock generation.
The first eight channels always correspond to the master board.

great. Are there any plans to have that overlay merged into bb.org-overlays or shall we maintain it ourselves?

I think it's better to maintain it yourself due configuration settings, which are mostly Bela, and not ALSA (i.e. "standard" Linux) related.

it is enabled by default as of f1a9720, so closing this.
