How to upgrade Ubuntu to Ubuntu Studiio (Intrepid Ibex)
I had Ubuntu Studio on my machine until a hard drive failure necessitated an emergency install of Ubuntu (Intrepid Ibex). Now I find that I can't simply add the archive.ubuntustudio.org to the apt sources list to convert this machine over to Ubuntu Studio like I did with Hardy Heron. Is there no other way to install Ubuntu Studio than to do a new install? -- Namaste, John (Konchok Jangchup Dorje ) Missing ([EMAIL PROTECTED] OR [EMAIL PROTECTED]) (http://www.myspace.com/rev_john_columba) Don't just do something, sit! -- 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
Re: Emagic Logic 5 (wine) and Emagic EMI 6|2 USB Audio Interface
EMI 6/2 drivers are compiled into the latest ALSA releases, you ll only want a script to load the firmware when plugged in.

Make sure that the correct one is enabled on the mixer and the volume is turned up. :) On my Latitute d600 the on-board microphone and the mic in port are actually two different inputs. I have a cheap cheap USB interface here plugged into my Inspiron 9400 and it presents three input devices and pile of output devices. The M-Audio PCI card I used to have had shedloads of inputs, all separately controlled via the mixer. Finally, it might be a good idea to monitor the inputs using a visual tool, my favourites is the meterbridge package. Hope it helps. -- 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

There are two reasons that I dislike ieee 1394. The first is that a lot of firewire devices use proprietary protocols to communicate across the link, which makes them useless to Linux users (RME Fireface anyone?). This is not a problem with ieee 1394 per se, but it means that most firewire audio gear is useless to me. I used FFADO back when it was called FreeBob, not a pleasant experience. The second is that firewire is a security problem. The idea that an external device can directly read and copy the contents in RAM without any sort of authentication or access control scares me. This is one of those things that I am glad USB does *not* do. Even more unbelievable is that this behaviour is part of the spec. > I am a fan of firewire, in fact it's my favourite kind of wire. > Firewire does things that USB simply cannot do, ie, reliably feed my > 7-year-old computer with 12 channels of audio simultaneously.

no sound from mic in ardour
Hi. I have Ubuntu studio 8.10 and a simple built_in sound card I start jack with jack ctl and connect capture_1 and capture_2 to Audio_in in Ardour.. But the mic doesn't register when I try to record a song. I don't know what to do next.

Re: Audio Production Laptop
> I am a fan of firewire, in fact it's my favourite kind of wire. > Should I limit myself to laptops that have multiple firewire ports? Or would getting a PCMCIA card with firewire interfaces or something be a better bet? Judging by several conversations I've had with digital audio enthusiasts, I'm on the side of firewire as well.

RE: Audio Production Laptop
Sounds like he saw something similar to what I mentioned in an earlier post. But, the Ubuntu CD I received with mine was an official Ubuntu CD. I didn't pursue why it wouldn't re-format the FAT partition that Dell had used. I just used Gparted live to reformat and then reloaded Ubuntu.

Re: Audio Production Laptop
Sorry to go off topic, but I'm fascinated by the line: > I am not a fan of firewire. Not a fan of firewire(more correctly, ieee 1394) because of compatability issues or because of the standard itself? I am a fan of firewire, in fact it's my favourite kind of wire. Firewire does things that USB simply cannot do, ie, reliably feed my 7-year-old computer with 12 channels of audio simultaneously. And I easily expand that a great deal.
