Software to play 8-channel wave files

[ekeefe]

Hello,

I purchased the 'Octo 8 channel sound card for the Raspberry Pi' last week from Amazon.

I am using a Raspberry Pi 3 and would like to use the board to play 8 channel wave files.

What software should I install?

Thank you,

ED

HI there,

You can use all sorts of software to achieve this.

For example mplayer will play all sorts of audio formats. Volumio looked interesting, I have posted on how to build your own volumio distribution here :

There is smplayer as well ... and a multitude of different types of players ...

What is your use case ? I wonder if there are some suggestions which can be made depending on what you are after.
