That looks easy to try and it runs OK without much complaint: $ /usr/lib/carla/carla-bridge-native internal "~/Wed-tune.wav" audiofile libjack.so.0 loaded successfully! Previous plugin state in '/home/john/Audio File.carxs' is non-existent, will start from default state But no sound. It shows up as a Readable Client with the right name, which I connect to playback_1 and _2 (and ebumeter), but nothing (with Jack transport running). -- Thanks again, John. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list Linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-dev
