Works with Linux. ffado-mixer seems to do things. There is a big wall of mixing settings. Very confusing.

The mic inputs are left/right channels of the same input so need to be split by software. Here's a note on doing that:

Spliting audio from: https://superuser.com/questions/685910/ffmpeg-stereo-channels-into-two-mono-channels

  • ffmpeg -i stereo.wav -map_channel 0.0.0 left.wav -map_channel 0.0.1 right.wav
  • ffmpeg -i input.m4a -filter_complex channelsplit out.mka
