I have a freshly installed Kubuntu 14.10 on an AMD A8-3850 Llano. The audio device for recording is a Logitech G430 Gaming Headset.
When I try to record audio, i.e. with audacity
or avconv
, it sounds as if frames are dropped. The recorded audio feels slightly shorter than expected, and there are "jumps".
How can I get audio recorded cleanly, with audacity as well as avconv?
My audio parameters for avconv were: -f pulse -i alsa_input.usb-Logitech_Logitech_G430_Gaming_Headset-00-Headset.analog-mono
.
The headset is connected via a USB hub. This particular USB hub is a Sitecom 10-port hub. Besides the headset it has two OmniKey CardMan 3121, one Sitecom (inside: Transcend) multi card reader and one Samsung Galaxy S3 connected to it.
