Updated the firmware of my #RME Digiface USB and also ticked the "CC Mode Active" box so that it's now a class compliant device. Ardour has no issues with it but PulseAudio on my Debian 12 system refuses to talk to it.
I kind of expected this as the USB ID stayed the same so the driver stack is still using the quirks introduced with the 6.12 kernel. That doesn't add up I guess. Probably best to flash the firmware again and untick the "CC Mode Active" box before flashing.
#BandcampFriday again and I'd like to recommend this piano solo live album by my wife: https://annaohlmann.bandcamp.com/album/begin-to
Please retoot if you like it.
(I did the technical part of the recording in the church St. Maria als… in Stuttgart. For the nerds: This was recorded using 4× Neumann TLM102 into a RME #Fireface 400 + #RME QuadMic + MacBook Pro 2017 running #Ardour. Mixed in #Mixbus on #Linux. No editing except for cutting away pauses between pieces including the applause.)

10 track album
So, all I wanted to do was a quick check, and once ffado-mixer is up and running i can do this on #Linux with the old #RME #Fireface400…
Turns out this #Focusrite Platinum #OctoPre here has some minor issues. (Hooked up to the RME via ADAT Lightpipe + WordClock)
I wanted to sell that one, I don't need it, but it get's a little hot… or is that normal? The power supply is not original.
Anyways, the analog gain meter is stuck.
I'm using a MacBook Pro 2017 simply for the reason of #RME #TotalMix. The software I use on #macOS is basically identical to what I use on Linux, it's called #Ardour. 
I don't do mixdown on that old MacBook. It's just my high-quality mobile recording setup with the Fireface 400. There is neither budget nor a proper reason to change this. The preamps/converters of the old Fireface things are still very good.
Of course, a MacBook Pro 2017 is beyond dead for #Apple fan persons.
Concerning #FFADO, it turns out to be a permission problem.
I can
sudo ffado-dbus-server
and then
sudo ffado-mixer
And I can do stuff. Of course, for everyday use, one should configure this to work as normal (non-root) user.
When I tried back in the day with Jack and the ffado-backend to Jack, the Fireface 400 worked reliably on #Linux, but with the #ALSA drivers I'm not so sure. I had hickups and strangely it didn't sound right. But also not wrong. Or maybe my hearing got twisted on the ffado rage…
Me: #Linux is great at still supporting old hardware.
Also me: Plugs in his #RME #Fireface400 and runs into the fact that #ffadomixer doesn't work no more.
(Yes, I did start FFADO DBus manually, didn't help.)
(The device has an #ALSA kernel driver by now which sort of works, so no #ffado backend to #jack needed… but you can't even adjust the gains of the preamps without ffado-mixer.)
(Usually I use this thing with macOS because… well because… *sigh*)
EDIT: It's a permission issue… ffado-mixer and ffado-dbus-server must run as the same user, and the latter must have permission to access the hardware.
Freudenthal :«Il valore che si attribuisce ai discenti come esseri umani determina il modo in cui ci si aspetta
che essi imparino la loro matematica: con libertà oppure da schiavi, guidati oppure imbrigliati».
“Nell'ambito della matematica, l'acquisizione di abilità e l'impiego di procedure e di algoritmi imposti e memorizzati, senza che siano compresi e motivati, rischia di diventare un addestramento analogo a quello degli animali da circo”.
La Educazione Matematica Realista (RME), sviluppata da Hans Freudenthal, è un approccio didattico basato su
- Reinvenzione Guidata. Il docente guida gli studenti perché scoprano le procedure matematiche, anziché riceverle passivamente.
- Interattività. Gli studenti cooperano per trovare le soluzioni, l'esperienza del mondo reale è all'inizio del processo di apprendimento
Nei metodi tradizionali prima vengono le definizioni e poi le applicazioni.
Ecco i punti chiave dell'Educazione Matematica Realista.
- Matematizzazione (Realista vs. Formale): organizzazione della realtà (situazioni problematiche) con mezzi matematici.
- Contesti significativi: i problemi devono essere "reali" per lo studente, cioè concreti (compiti di realtà
, la spesa, situazioni quotidiane).
- Modellizzazione: uso di modelli per descrivere una situazione che diventano modelli astratti e quindi matematici.
La Educazione Matematica Realista (RME), sviluppata da Hans Freudenthal, è un approccio didattico in cui la matematica viene appresa non come un sistema astratto, ma come un'attività umana di matematizzazione di situazioni reali e significative. Gli studenti "reinventano" i concetti matematici partendo da contesti quotidiani, utilizzando modelli (come diagrammi o schemi) che evolvono da descrizioni concrete a strumenti formali.
