## Linux / Raspberry Pi

### Pulseaudio

If you have a desktop installation, chances are you're using Pulseaudio which has a module for making an internal loopback.

run the following command in terminal:

```
pacmd load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1
```

after that, you should hear audio through your default input device. If not, check Input devices in Pulseaudio Volume Control
```
pavucontrol
```

If the tools are missing, install pavucontrol (Debian based systems):
```
apt install pavucontrol
```

### JACK

It is possible to route the M8 USB audio to another audio interface in Linux without a DAW, using JACK Audio Connection kit and a few other command line tools.

Please note that this is not an optimal solution for getting audio from the headless M8, but as far as I know the easiest way to use the USB audio feature on Linux. The best parameters for running the applications can vary a lot depending on your configuration, and however you do it, there will be some latency.
