If you want to record the music you play with other musicians, you should absolutely get into JACK and Ardour. JACK is a big, strong beast but thanks the efforts of projects like Ubuntustudio it is easy to master nowadays. If you ave installed the Ubuntustudio packages you have done the biggest part of the work already. Get qjackctl running: this allows to configure and start JACK, the audio demon all modern music-apps in Linux use to deliver sound to each other and to the soundcard. For the recording I recommend Ardour - it has the best Wave-arranging/mixing/editing capabilities you will find in Linux today. If you want to compose MIDI-Music, Rosegarden is a great Sequencer and a notation-tool also. RG can be synchronized with Ardour via JACK. > I need to first of all cut a large wave file into separate pieces If you have recorded with Ardour this is a piece of cake.

They are but not very well and with much lesser options/comfort as you will find in Ardour. The Wave-support in RG is OK if you compose a Song with MIDI-instruments and want to add some simple vocals or a Guitar. good luck ;-) HZN -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIvQrE1Aecwva1SWMRAvGaAJ4tBuBscCIeryGoGUigecZcsEmeKQCfaKXo yRO9c0lNsBMbOChJEYWErRY= =ZQOS -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- 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

I now have a different problem however, I can't see any midi connections in qJackCtl for sooperlooper. Could I have missed something and compiled without midi support?

I don't know how feasable this strategy > might be, but it's what popped into my head. I'm not sure it's best to skip a release just because it has a regression for some subset of users. If those users are happy using the current release, they need not upgrade, but those users (yes, perhaps a minority) for whom this feature is less important (e.g. graphic artists) may prefer to have an updated release. Additionally, while there is a certain expectation of releasing 8.04.2, including many bugfixes and security updates to 8.04.1, such a release will contain only these fixes, and not include newer applications, etc. The creation of an "intrepid-like" metapackage within 8.04 is infeasible, as any 8.04.x release is inherently bound to the same repositories as used for other Ubuntu flavours. That said, as a user of audio applications, it is my hope that a solution can be found that will allow the released 8.10 to meet my needs. While I do require the audio system to work reliably, and at relatively low and predictable latency, I have not performed sufficient testing to know if realtime is required for my specific workload: it may be that other schedulers are sufficient. -- Emmet HIKORY -- 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

For me, the great thing about UbuntuStudio is that things work out of the box: I don't *have* to compile a kernel to get proper realtime support. Over the years, I've closely followed the progress in Linux Audio land and have compiled lots of kernels, but am very glad that I rarely have to anymore (if ever). If the realtime kernel lags a version behind, so be it- If I really need the latest bleeding edge functionality *now*, I can always decide to compile my own anyway, but I'm more likely to simply wait until it appears and be OK with it. So from my point of view, an out-of-sync RT kernel would be fine. But as different people have different needs, let's hear what others have to say.
