RE: Audiophile 2496 on 9.10 beta
> Does anyone have sound on M-Audio Audiophile 2496 (ice1712) ? Are you asking about the card's compatibility with UbuStu in general, or its compatibility with 9.10 in particular? I have that card on my UbuStu box, but I'm still running 8.04. No problems that I can determine, and I've used it for quite a while. Though, I haven't tested the MIDI ports yet, I'm just using it for audio. -Karlheinz ___ http://www.khznoise.com _ Hotmail: Trusted email with Microsoft’s powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/177141664/direct/01/ -- 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
Ardour2 question
I have two computers running Ardour2. One is running Ardour 2.7.1 on Gentoo, the second is running Ardour 2.3 on Ubuntu. There are some differences in the editor UI which I'd like to reconcile. Any help will be appreciated. In the 2nd installation, Ardour 2.3, the playhead cursor (vertical line) extends only up to the bottom of the ruler stack. On the 2nd, the playhead cursor extends all the way to the top. I would like to have the option to change this behavior easily. In the 2nd installation, left-clicking on the Range Markers ruler creates a selected range between the two nearest location markers. This is very handy, but I can't reproduce this behavior on the Ardour 2.7.1, having tried control and other meta keys along with mouse clicks, with no luck. Can this be changed somehow, or is it a feature that was "upgraded" out of the program between the two releases? Is there a better documentation source for Ardour than the one at ardour.stackingdwarves.net? This is woefully incomplete. -- Lindsay Haisley | "Everything works if you let it" FMP Computer Services | (The Roadie) 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com| -- 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

Regarding the phantom power, my USB interface (Tascam US122) has problems when the phantom power is on, and it is also known for 'burning' the internal phantom power supply if we disconnect the microphone with the phantom power on... This was also reported for other USB interfaces, but I can't remember the other that had the same problems. So I think the better way might be to have a dedicated mic preamp with phantom power, an internal soundcard, or a firewire audio interface (any of these can have decent power supplies, the usb audio interfaces with phantom power have a more difficult task since they are powered by the USB interface, so they have limited power capability). As I told before, mine works well, with two exceptions: I can't use the other input channel (I usually use it for the guitar) while I have the phantom power on, because it has high noise with the phantom power on, and I have to be careful to not disconnect the mic while having the phantom power on. Other more recent usb audio interfaces might be better, maybe someone can recommend you one that works well on Ubuntustudio.

Re: recording vocals
Hi Jason I'm using a M-Audio Nova mic (about $100), connected to the Tascam US-122 USB audio interface. I've recently added the Behringer MIC800 modeling preamp, but haven't made any real test with it. I like the sound with the M-Audio Nova + Tascam US122 combination the problem for me is that the US122 phantom power is a bit tricky (the second input channel has noise when I turn on the phantom power for powering the mic)... Of course everything is working on Ubuntu Studio (9.10 Beta at the moment, as I posted yesterday to the list). If you need any additional details please feel free to ask me!
