Dear Erich, Ok, I understand your guidelines and understand that I would follow and learn bela.io to reach my objetives. Thank you, with general kernel Ubuntu Studio 22.04 LTS is ok for my workstation, but low latency kernel insatisfy my soul. I also read again links that you offer me. Regards. Juan.

Hi Juan, You're already off to a rough start. First of all, Xfce is not deprecated. It's merely not the default. One can still use Xfce by using Xubuntu and using Ubuntu Studio Installer. This is covered via a link on the very front page of the website and via a download page, but here's a link for your reference: https://ubuntustudio.org/ ubuntu-studio-installer[1] Secondly, we never refer to an Ubuntu (or Studio or any other flavor) merely by the year (you referred to it as simply 22) as this is highly imprecise. Later this month, 22.10 (2022.October) will be released. The version number always refers to the date it was released, not an arbitrary number. I assume you're referring to the version released in 2022.April, or 22.04 as it's officially known. Please be more precise and refer to it by the YY.MM (Year.Month), not simply the year, as this will get confusing very quickly with two "22"s in the same year. Here's more about the release cycle: https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle[2] Secondly, RT kernels in desktop computers are a very bad idea for security and power usage reasons and should only be implemented in embedded systems. Read this to see a an explanation as to why, and why Ubuntu Studio does NOT condone nor support RT kernels: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ RealTimeKernel[3] That said, there is already a safe RT kernel in the works with the new implementations done in the most recent kernel technologies internally at Canonical. I have not kept up on those conversations (as stated before privately to you, I do not work for Canonical) but I do have my finger on the pulse that there have been things in the works.

I would like promote some maybe simple or maybe complex. So, Over 2013 I was building piece by piece, big workstation in amd64/ATX, nowdays is working by default KDE new envirnonment GUI with recently Deprecated XCFE. Only apt install kde-full && reboot to work in Ubunu 22. Satisfy my self. But I'm looking for help to work and job, focusing only on Sound/Audio, as Bela.io, for example, with other RT Kernel than default low latency maybe no tolarated in professional Sound Environments or acoustics applied data science environments able to look ahead bechmarking.

[ubuntu-studio-users] Jack shows 22 outputs but only 8 produce a sound output
Hello everyone, I'm new to this list and also new to Linux. I am a PhD student working on a research project with hearing impaired people. For our research studies we want to realize different audiological tests with a virtual acoustic sound system. The program we use for rendering the virtual acoustics runs in Linux. In our lab, we have a Fireface 802 sound card from RME. But RME doesn't offer support in Linux and unfortunately doesn't provide drivers. I run the Fireface in ClassCompliant mode and it is connected via USB to the computer with Ubuntu Studio 20.04 LTS as operating system. Basically the Fireface works, I can use 8 output channels for my sound playback via Jack. But the problem is that I actually want to get playback from 12 loudspeakers in our loudspeaker circuit. When I start Jack, it displays 22 output channels, but as I said, only 8 playback channels are playing sound. Could this be caused by the snd_usb_audio driver? Or how can I assign the output channels directly? About any suggestion for a solution I would be very happy!!!

[ubuntu-studio-users] Carla - sound card not showing up
Hello, I have just done a fresh install of kubuntu 20.04 + the ubuntu studio installer. However when I open Studio Controls and click on 'start or restart Jack' nothing happens (jack does not start). I am able to start jack via Qjackctl. But when I open Carla, my sound card (focusrite scarlett) does not show up in the patch bay. (It is detected and listed if i type 'lsusb' in the terminal) I have used carla with this sound card in the past on an older version of ubuntu studio and I'm sure it was plug and play. Have tried a few different sound cards. Am I forgetting or missing something obvious?

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Sound broke in upgrade to 19.10
Cyril, I apologize, it does seem as if your issue is relevant. EVERYONE: I highly recommend posting your issues on askubuntu.com since these issues seem to be related to the Xfce environment (brand-new at version 4.14 this release). Because it's related to the desktop environment (which is not specific to Ubuntu Studio and is shared with Xubuntu), you'll definitely find more help there. Additionally, askubuntu.com should always be your first point of contact for issues, not this mailing list or IRC since there may be past, relevant issues, or whatever support is given there can be referenced in the future. This eliminates duplicated effort.

Cyril, Please do not piggyback off of other people's issues unless it is identical to your own (this thread is not).

[ubuntu-studio-users] On board sound has left the building...
Hi, I'm sending this because I'm drawing a blank as to if I ever figured it out before. (I've had enough coffee, so it must be age related memory loss.) :( I'm running UbuntuStudio 19.04. And have been using Ubuntu Studio Controls exclusively for several months. Until yesterday things were working pretty well in my studio. But, I took my system to a gig and the USB mixer wouldn't boot. (So much for Allen & Heath being high end gear...but, that another story.) Before this debacle, I could route Pulse out to both my USB rig and onboard speakers (simultaneously) , no problem. (I typically do this with Carla.) Anyhow, after attempting to use the headphone out on my laptop to get analog out to another mixer and tweaking UBS Controls I remembered I'd never been able to get the headphone out to work, only the onboard speakers. So, now back in the studio, I can only get sound from the usb rig. I can route to the onboard (i.e. system:playback) but nothing comes from the on board speakers. In short, usb works but onboard audio seems to have been disabled. (here's the memory loss...) what commands can I use to see whats up with the onboard sound hardware? (I fired up alsamixer and made sure the usual suspects were un-muted and up...)

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Upgrade to 17.10 audio problem : no detectable sound card in xfce
Thanks for reporting back. It could potentially be useful for others. http://ubuntustudio.org/merchandise/ As it says there, we don't get any money. But the advertising helps to spread the word! As you seem to know what you are doing, helping out here with user queries is always welcome. You could also try triaging a few bugs on Ubuntu Studio packages: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs Just when you have a spare hour or so here and there. It all helps.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Upgrade to 17.10 audio problem : no detectable sound card in xfce
Hello Ross, for some reason there was a newer kernel in /boot/ which was not part of Ubuntu Studio. The installation didn't touch the kernel, but wiped out (as should and expected) all files under /lib/modules for this kernel. As a sequence, grub recognized the kernel, being the newest, placed it in top, my son kept selecting it being the default, and so there was no sound, since there were no drivers in /lib/modules at all. I am puzzled even at how the system managed to boot ... Another problem prior to that, was the X11 upstart. Due to this I could not get XFCE loading completely, so all I kept seeeing was an empty screen with the mouse moving (slow). The upstart problem was solved by the upgrade. The drivers problem by running install-grub from the live CD. All went good. My son tells me this better than the previous version. You guys are doing a great job. I would like to contribute, some way, maybe by buying something I guess. Ubuntu Studio must stay alive. Thanks. On 23/02/2018 12:31, Ross Gammon wrote: Hi Achilleas, Yuck.

[ubuntu-studio-users] Upgrade to 17.10 audio problem : no detectable sound card in xfce
Hello list! My son uses and likes Ubuntu Studio for audio/video/gaming. I am an old Unix die-hard using unix since early SunOS, and also FreeBSD/Linux since the early 90s. Ok, enough with the intros, here is the steps that lead to the problem : At first I tried to upgrade from 16.10 but obviously there was no update path due to 16.10 being obsolete. Then I tried a hack to force upgrade directly to artful , by changing /etc/apt/sources.list but this resulted in an unstable system (no grub, ultra slow USB wireless mouse and keyboard, etc). And finally decided to bite the bullet, back everything up and go for a fresh installation. In the process of installation I decided to keep old user data files (i.e. not format). Files were kept, but not the exact users -> uid , groups -> gid mappings. So I had to do some editing there. Everything seemed to go semi-OK, but then started some more problems. Mouse/Keaybord were still slow, laggy even lossy (keyboard). I changed the USB port and keyboard and mouse started behaving good. Then I decided to test some sound.

I did all of the above - replacing /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with the single line and then rebooting. Yet when I enter 'aplay -l' I still get: List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices card 0: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 0: ALC3227 Analog [ALC3227 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 which is exactly the same output as I had before. As I understand it, this means that the required sound card is hw:1,0. As well as booting into Ubuntu with low latency, I also tried rebooting and choosing the grub menu option with normal latency, to see if this made any difference, but it didn't.

Both - as I said, the edit of alsa-base.conf hasn't made any
difference. I have reverted back to the original version.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Default sound settings
not surprising this is one of the three most aggravating things about the *nix universe I find. Something works out great and you get it all playing nice together and then along comes an update and the printer quits working or the sound quits or the flash player plugins quit working and you are back to square one again troubleshooting for a fix to one or all of these items every time an update comes out. sad but true and it seems to happen with all flavors of *nix mint, ubuntu studio , ubuntu desktop K and X.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately adding 'options snd slots=snd_hda_intel' (as it would be in my case) to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf has not made any difference, even after rebooting the computer.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Default sound settings
Hi, get the driver name of that device by lshw like this ubuntu-mate@ubuntu-mate:~$ sudo lshw -C sound | grep driver configuration: driver=snd_hdspm latency=0 configuration: driver=snd-usb-audio maxpower=100mA speed=12Mbit/s On my machine the wanted sound card's driver is snd_hdspm. Then generate a file, resp. add to an existing file, that ensures that the wanted sound card always is hw:0 after startup. The below commands first tries to make a copy, assuming /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf should already exist. ubuntu-mate@ubuntu-mate:~$ sudo -i root@ubuntu-mate:~# cp -ai /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf /root/alsa-base.conf.backup root@ubuntu-mate:~# echo "options snd slots=snd_hdspm" >> /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf Just replace snd_hdspm with your driver. On my machine this does cause that the device that belongs to the driver snd_hdspm is always hw:0 and the other device becomes hw:1. This might solve your issue, if not you simply could delete the file or replace a file that already existed with the backup.

[ubuntu-studio-users] Default sound settings
I have UbuntuStudio 16.04 installed on my laptop. It would nice if I could get my default sound settings arranged so that sound works reliably in all (or at least most) programs. At present I can choose the correct sound card by altering settings in some programs (e.g. VLC and Audacity), but not in others (e.g. Parole). At the moment, I have no graphical sound setting option. When I open Settings from the main menu, I get the usual window with lots of options under the main headings Personal, Hardware, Audio Production, System and Other, but nowhere is there a general sound setting option that I can see. How can I enable this? Fortunately, I can run 'alsamixer' from a terminal emulator. Using this shows me that the sound card I need to address is no. 1 "HD-Audio Generic", and not no. 0 "HDA ATI HDMI". The first item listed, "Default", appears to be pointing to the HDMI output. How can I change this? David -- ubuntu-studio-users mailing list ubuntu-studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

[ubuntu-studio-users] Sound bug with some Steam games
I DON'T WANT TO SPAM THE LIST, THIS IS A NON WORK RELATED QUESTION, FEEL FREE TO IGNORE IT. Hi all. I've been having some crackling sounds with some (not all) steam games (mostly Unity engine games). I tried the fixes in this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=982985 and this thread https://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/0/392184522707517791/ To no avail (actually, it's more or less the same, changing /etc/pulse/daemon.conf settings). Everything is working but the sound in games (VLC, Audacity, Rhythmbox working Ok) (Unity engine games work fine in Wine, btw). Anyway, my question is, are there any recommended values for pulse audio daemon.conf? I have a very weird setup, and old Dell T-5400 and a newer nVidia GTX 780. I'll be thankful for any suggestions or advice, since most I've found don't take into account the low latency kernel that makes me love ubuntu studio so much.

For me none of that works. It only records and plays in jack.

You can still make pulseaudio connect with jack, making pulseaudio a jack client. Default settings in qjackctl make this possible. After starting jack, you will still need to set pulseaudio to use jack as its output in pulseaudio settings - also, sometimes you will need to reinitialize or restart any running pulseaudio applications.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] No sound during video playback
Thanks for your replies, sorry for not being more helpful so far.
I tried logging in as guest from a fresh boot, but guest user could not
access any of the drives with videos in, nor could I mount them as sudo
was not allowed.
Then I logged out and back in as my normal user account, and tried
opening a video with Totem (the default video player) and it worked
perfectly, with video and sound. I also tried with VLC and it worked. I
also opened Rhythmbox and it played audio files okay.
So for no apparent reason it seems to have fixed itself without me
actually doing anything other than logging in as guest before logging
into my user account.
It could just be an intermittent problem of course.

The same goes for Audacity, which I need for editing audio files.
According to sound settings that I looked at sound is enabled and

I believe I am using Pulse Audio sound.
dont "believe" anything.. are you using pulse? pulse ships with
ubuntustudio.. also, JACK ships. if you start an audio application
that requires JACK, and automatically tries to start JACK, this can
cause issues with your "normal" audio. please reboot, and dont start

another user to, as i stated a few times, remove your users config

are you using any PPAs? if its just one isolated player that is not
playing the files, i would either remove/rename the config file for
the application in my users /home, or test playing a file with the
application as another user or the guest user. this will tell you if
its a problem with the actual application, or the config file for the
application in your users /home.
if you find you have a bug, you can use
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs
what i like to do is lay out the *exact* circumstances for the issue,
as well as, in your case, sharing a common file that is not playing
for you so that another user, such as myself, can test and try and
replicate the issue. keep in mind, if you are using PPA's, make sure
the files that are being used are ubuntu files/applications and not
files from the PPA's.. if you use PPA's, you will report issues/bugs
with those files/applications provided by the PPA's with the PPA

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Fwd: no sound at all after switch to ubuntustudio
Hi, Arno, I had that experience, too, when I switched to Ubuntu Studio from 12.04 LTS, and changing the "Sounds" settings in "System Settings" fixed it for me. Hope that helps. Smiles.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Fwd: no sound at all after switch to ubuntustudio
Check with a headphone if there's sound. This will help isolate the problem. I had a similar problem after upgrading from Kubuntu 8.10 to 13.10, I lost sound. Eventually I found out that there was still sound on the headphones. I don't really have lots of time for troubleshooting, so I just use a headphone when I want sound. The problem might have something to do with missing commercial sound codecs, but that's just a guess. It has happened to me several times, a major upgrade breaks a perfectly working but older system. That's why I avoid major upgrades unless absolutely necessary. Roberto Arno Waschk wrote: can you please help me? I can hear no sound on my machine.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Fwd: no sound at all after switch to ubuntustudio
dear Mike, thank you for your reply! obviously i was no clear enough in stating, that i have been using jack for years together with pulse tied to it. And it went fine for years. And i cannot do without, as e. g. audacity by far does not do the job for me, and i am a happy user of e. g. ardour 3 for quite a while yet. So please believe that what i was trying to describe is something i am experienced in. As you hint to as well, i cannot understand why the thing is broken now suddenly. Obviously i am left clueless by something which reasonably *should* work. So please help me by hinting to configuration files or the like, where something might be needed to be changed. Which is why i told about the strangeness observed within alsamixer output. Any ideas somebody?

Yours, Arno if you havent used JACK before, its probably just a matter of not having any experience with the tools. if you are not planning on using JACK, i would just go back to xubuntu, but, basically, they are all ubuntu. ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu, so if you are using the same kernel (which you likely are, even if you installed the lowlatency one, if you didnt do anything to select and boot it). the main difference is likely this simple... you are clicking on applications (such as ardour) that try and start JACK. JACK gets started, and basically takes over your audio (as it is supposed to do).. you then have no way of going back to using the system normally with pulse, since you have just started using JACK, and are likely not configuring it properly (if at all)... i would first relax, and ask yourself if you are in need of JACK. if the answer is "no", then, dont use it. if you want to casually edit some audio files, you can do that with audacity from inside *any* major operating system, such as stock xubuntu without adding the ubuntustudio packages. if you need JACK then, you would want to start from a fresh boot, and open "qjackctl" and start configuring that GUI tool to start JACK. you would select your audio device and click "start" and troubleshoot any errors that come up for you in the window there. refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro cheers! -- Arno Waschk a...@arnowaschk.de <mailto:a...@arnowaschk.de> +491723149605 +436508950949 (nur während

Sound config settings/files?
Hello, Right now, and for a while, I'm using US 12.10, great distro but a bit overkill for what I actually do (I work with images, not sound), but so far the only one that makes the sound in this machine work good. I'll try to explain. When I move the volume slider, the one in the panel, it changes the volume in the right scale, that is quiet when low, loud when its nearly full, but if I use another desktop environment, right now I'm using cinnamon, the slider doesn't works right - only a portion in the middle of the slider changes the volume, and it's not so soft. For example, the volume stays the same from 5% to 45%, then it gets very loud (the loudest my speakers can get) at 60% and then it stays like that until 100%, making the difference of volume in that section very noticeable, and also making using the scroll wheel on the icon or using the vol+/vol- buttons in my keyboard not that usable. A bit hard to explain... I've tested many other distros and they all have the same problem, except this version of US (haven't tested the last one).

I have, on occasion, had 2 of my 3 AF12's wired up for live recording for 24 channels for theatrical musicals. And I've tested with all 3 for a total of 36 channels and it seemed to be ok, though I've not attempted any 2 hour recordings. I have talked to Pieter and he recons 3 is about the max you could expect for firewire, though, that discussion was a couple years ago.

good external sound card
Hey all! I wanted to get some recommendations on a good quality external sound card.

Issue with the priority of the sound cards using rtirq
Hi :) since I've got a strange issue with rtirq on US Precise only. Is there anybody having a strange output for /etc/init.d/rtirq status too? I remember that there was a post, when US Precise wasn't released. Regards, Ralf PS: You might take a look at http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2012-May/date.html http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2012-April/date.html Message: 17 Date: Tue, 01 May 2012 13:17:39 +0200 From: Jeremy Jongepier Subject: Re: [LAU] Issue with the priority of the sound cards using rtirq To: linux-audio-u...@lists.linuxaudio.org Message-ID: <4f9fc653.9040...@autostatic.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed On 05/01/12 12:09, Ralf Mardorf wrote: > Jeremy, the bad is, that I don't have another PCIe x1 slot:(. > Ah bummer :( >> > In my experience, restarting the script tries to raise the priorities >> > of the threads in RTIRQ_NAME_LIST, but the ones which are already >> > raised aren't lowered even if you leave them out of the list. >> > >> > Try rebooting the computer. >> > >> > Cheers, Pablo > *reboot* > > The reboot doesn't improve anything:(. So the output of /etc/init.d/rtirq status is the same as in the other mail? That's really weird. The only thing I can think of is that something else (another script?) is prioritizing stuff too (like the nvidia and ohci_hcd processes). The steps between the priorities strengthens my suspicion, it should be 5 but some processes do not get a prio that can be divided by 5 (like nvidia which has prio 82). No one on the Ubuntu Studio list encountered the same issue? Maybe Ubuntu (or Ubuntu Studio) prioritizes processes somewhere else.

Well, different people, different art of coding, I guess. But this does not influence any correct way in the context. We cannot change this, but we should keep this in mind here on the mailing list, I suggest. > You learn playing Rock music in the streets, not by books. 2 Cents YMMV. I wouldn't completely agree on this. I guess we can compare music with language here. If you want to learn a language, you first have to learn the basic vocabulary. Of course, you then learn by speaking (=playing your instrument). But if you don't keep up with the basics, you can not get on a "higher level". Therefor, musical theory helps you not only to get better, but also to have more fun, because if you know more, it's more easy to express your feelings/thoughts via this way. Just my cents.

Hi, Thanks for your answer, but still there is something I don't get. Am 19.09.2011 um 20:49 schrieb Ralf Mardorf : > PS: I'm not using Rosegarden.

Let me try to put it in my words: rosegarden shows general midi information for any possible sw or hw synth here that has to be connected in order to get something out of the speakers. If this is true, I wonder where "Acoustic grand piano" comes from, because (if I understand all of this correctly) the sound itself is done by the synth and not by the sequencer. So the sequencer shouldn't know anything about the names of the soundfonts that are loaded by the synth, it should only display eg the name of the connection itself eg "midi connection 1" that is communicating with the synth, correct? If I am right, I wonder about the name of the midi information in rosegarden. Does anybody know if the naming here is some kind of rest from a synth that was eg included in rosegarden (which is a possible explanation of the naming here to me)? > The only advantage of > Rosegarden is, that it has got a notation software included. I don't > need this. Do you need notation printing? Notation... Well, let me put it that way: Normal musicians in "rock music" (as a wide definition of what I like) shouldn't ever need to write down their stuff because after all, they know what they are playing.

It doesn't produce sound. Xsynth, ZynAddSubFX etc. are soft synth that are independent of Rosegarden, Rosegarden is just a host, able to load those softsynth as plug-ins. You can use the same synth with other sequencers. A MIDI event is data that e.g contains information about what note should be played, this and nothing more is recorded by a sequencer. The sound modules aka softsynth understand this information and will play that e.g. note, but you need to load such a softsynth as plug.in, assumed the sequencer is able to be a host, otherwise you need to send the data by MIDI out to an hardware or soft-synth. I suspect that something like LMMS http://lmms.sourceforge.net/ does work different, I suspect it will directly rout to included synth, not a way to work professional. -- The Germans have another kind of parenthesis, which they make by splitting a verb in two and putting half of it at the beginning of an exciting chapter and the other half at the end of it.

I prefer Qtractor to Rosegarden, but I suspect the best sequencer could be Ardour3. Don't worry about latency when using an USB MIDI device. The only issue for USB MIDI devices is jitter when using them for MIDI out. I suspect that you'll quantise MIDI events, hence jitter for input isn't a serious issue. Internal Linux, when using soft synth, there's no MIDI jitter, the MIDI hardware completely has no impact. Latency for audio isn't an issue for your sound card, regarding to that you're equipment is ok, you only need to follow the advice of Q. -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users

Unfortunately, I have no Sound Card with Midi Support, so I connect the keyboard via USB (I am aware of the possible latency). As system, I am using Ubuntu Studio 8.04, because it was quite hard to get my sound card working (M-Audio Delta 66), so I did not dare to change to a newer version. I can see the keys via Jack connector and I connected it to "record in" from rosegarden (http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-1-c4ca-png.html) in alsa tab. In rosegarden, I can see that a signal is coming in and that it records something (http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-3-eccb-png.html). But how do I now get the signal to the speakers? Nothing really works - http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-2-c81e-png.html shows that I have 4 outputs from rosegarden. What I'd like to do is to connect the output from rosegarden to a channel from Ardour. Can somebody please help? Greets. Hi MIDI isn't a protocol for sound and MIDI devices don't generate sound, the Oxygen 8 is a controller keyboard. MIDI is a protocol for controlling and interfacing musical instruments -- Musical Instrument Digital Interface -- it doesn't transmit sounds, just messages about note durations, note on, note off, note velocity etc. If your Oxygen 8 isn't connected to a software synthesizer on your computer (such as a DSSI synth or a soundfont engine in Rosegarden) or a hardware synth or sound module, you'll never hear anything, whether connected with a DIN connector or MIDI over USB. It looks like you've managed to record the MIDI data you created by playing the keyboard, but there is no instrument for the data to play and make a sound. The M-Audio cards don't contain synthesizers so the General MIDI Acoustic Grand Piano showing in RG isn't actually connected to anything that can make a sound. I hope this helps.

No sound from Midi Keyboard via USB
Hello List, I just have a Midi Keyboard here (M-Audio Axygen 8) and I am trying to get any sound out of it. Unfortunately, I have no Sound Card with Midi Support, so I connect the keyboard via USB (I am aware of the possible latency). As system, I am using Ubuntu Studio 8.04, because it was quite hard to get my sound card working (M-Audio Delta 66), so I did not dare to change to a newer version. I can see the keys via Jack connector and I connected it to "record in" from rosegarden (http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-1-c4ca-png.html) in alsa tab. In rosegarden, I can see that a signal is coming in and that it records something (http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-3-eccb-png.html). But how do I now get the signal to the speakers? Nothing really works - http://www.bilder-hochladen.net/files/inr2-2-c81e-png.html shows that I have 4 outputs from rosegarden. What I'd like to do is to connect the output from rosegarden to a channel from Ardour. Can somebody please help?
