Is anybody using jack-audio-connection successfully with ardour? I've just started trying to use jack and ardour and am not having much success and have some connections.
If I run jack as my user (who is a memeber of the audio group) I get a message to the effect I don't have permission and it quits. If I run jack (jackd blah blah) as root and then start ardour under my user ardour complains that it cannot make a connection. Some background - I had jack and ardour running briefly last night. I had the mixer up and was able to make an input connection to record a CD track and could see the mixer level lights move although I never saw anything on the editor page. However, during this session ardour locked up and I had to use the reset switch to restart it. Today I couldn't get ardour to run and when it did it locked up. I unmerged both jack and ardour and emerged them again - same thing. 1. Shouldn't I be able to run jack as a user or can I start it as root and let it run. Will it service any users who need it then? 2. Why is ardour not seeing jack when it's running - my understanding is that Jack runs as root and then ardour will make a connection to it. 3. Any ideas on why ardour might lockup so badly. I haven't been able to get any data since I have to use the hardware reset. Thanks. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
