As a work-around you could either try resampling externally your audio file to match the samplerate you use with rosegarden, or vice-versa match the jack samplerate to the desired wave file. I tried making sure the sample rates match, but unfortunately it is still giving the error. -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Rosegarden-user mailing list Rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net - use the link below to unsubscribe https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rosegarden-user

Yep, it's a 2i2, and this worked. I had the keyboard on in 1 L and the mic on in 2 R. I switched the mic to in 2 L, and it worked exactly as I want it to.

[Rosegarden-user] Recording Audio from a Mic
Hi all, What I am aiming at is to be able to listen to the midi tracks being played through the korg in the headphones while recording vocal audio tracks through the microphone, but I am having trouble. I am trying to record audio from a microphone into a track in Rosegarden 15.12. I have the track set to audio, and I have the instrument parameters set to 'in 1' and out to master. The input meter in the instrument parameters shows that signal from the mic is coming in.

The keyboard and the mic are coming through the same interface, a scarlet focusrite. It seemed to me that the 'recording filters' under 'track parameters' might be the place this should be fixed, but both 'device' and 'channel' are grayed out. I'm not sure what to try. Help would be greatly appreciated!

I did fix this problem as well though; somehow, I managed to clear the 'sends its data through' setting in the 'manage midi devices,' so the korg was sending the data to nowhere.

[Rosegarden-user] MIDI settings messed up after restart
Hi all, I had previously asked the list for help with getting Rosegarden to recognize the program names on my old Korg triton studio. I was able to make all this work, but it is doing surprising things after a restart. I was able to set up the Korg Triton as a MIDI device, and save it in the default studio. From there, I could change programs on RG and the Korg would just do as it was told; I didn't have to mess with the Korg at all, to change programs or anything. I was able to see and use the korg as a MIDI device in any new file. After the restart, when I try to play the same file, the programs as listed in the 'instrument parameters' box do not match what they originally were, and the programs on the korg are seemingly random general midi instruments. When I change the programs in 'instrument parameters' to the right ones, the programs on the Korg either don't change, or they change back to the GM instruments almost immediately. In addition, when I open files made previous to my addition of the Triton as a MIDI device, it is not available as a MIDI device. It seemed like I might have to to do Studio -> import default studio, but after this not only does the triton still not show up as a MIDI device, all sound is muted, even though the meters are still jumping. I have messed around with this, but I have no idea what the problem is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The bizarre drum doubling seems to have gone also; I'm not sure what I did differently, but after a restart of RG and the Korg it's gone.

[Rosegarden-user] Basic Midi Set up
Hi all, I am a new Rosegarden user, trying out how to sync RG with my Korg Triton. I have existing sequences in the Korg, that I would like to bounce over to RG. I have managed to get the data to record from the Korg into RG, but still not in sync, and I get frequent unexpected occurrences; specifically, I have trouble with unexpected program changes and notes sticking or feeding back. From reading the handbook, it seems that setting each channel to 'Receive External' should result in RG just sending the MIDI data to the programs however they might be arranged on the keyboard, but I still get unexpected program changes. 'Receive external will even uncheck itself almost immediately after I check it. I looked into setting the exact bank and program numbers for each channel, but RG doesn't "see" the korg, it only "sees" my Scarlett 2i4 "general midi device." I tried to set it up through "Manage MIDI Banks and Programs," and imported existing bank settings for the Triton Extreme. (This was the closest I could find to my keyboard) I thought I could at least set the right bank and program numbers, even if the names didn't match. This didn't seem to work at all, and now each channel is just playing whatever program each channel on the Korg is set to; this is what I wanted it to do initially, but when I try to use it that way I get the aforementioned surprises. I'm not sure what to do about the issue.

Re: [Rosegarden-user] Drag notes vertically without changing timing
In matrix editor, select the note, or several notes, whose pitch you want to change. Then just use the keyboard up arrow or down arrow to shift the pitch up or down.

Thank you in advance. After recording notes using a MIDI keyboard, I want to modify them in the matrix view to correct timing and pitch. I can easily drag notes horizontally to correct timing without modifying their pitch. But I can't do the opposite, dragging vertically to change pitch when I have pressed a wrong key without changing its initial time (except if I am extremely accurate with the mouse). With other software (MIDI sequencers, Image edition...) one can usually do this by pressing Shift while dragging. It seems that dragging vertically in the notation editor respects the initial time of notes. However, what about the Matrix editor? I searched this list and the manual before asking, but maybe it is already written somewhere. If so, please point me in the right direction. Thanks.

[Rosegarden-user] Linked-copy segments don't work with lyrics in lilypond
Hi, Recently returning to Rosegarden after a couple of years, I'm very impressed with 11.11.42 (Debian testing). Many thanks to the developers. One outstanding improvement is the linked-copy feature, and its ability to create repeats with alternate endings in the score. But it has one little problem I haven't seen mentioned yet: if linked segments contain lyrics, the lilypond print only shows a single copy: no repeats, no endings or other segments, even if they are selected for printing. With chords and other text, linked copies print fine. Should I report a bug? Regards, John O'Hagan -- For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second. Boundary is the first to Know...and Tell You.
