Input method for Japanese Charactors in Ubuntu Studio

2010-06-21 Thread Takashi Sakamoto
Hi Arwin,

I use Ubuntu Studio under Japanese language and it's fine for displaying 
Japanese language and inputting Japanese charactors.

It's enough to just installing language-support-ja metapackage.
The package installs some packages related to Input Method and GNOME 
translation.

Then select anthy (ibus-anthy) as its default IM in ibus setting. You 
can input Japanese charactors.

Recently mozc engine based on Google technology was released and some 
Japanese users test ibus-mozc. I hear it's better than ibus-anthy but 
has a little bugs.

ATOK released by Juse Systems in Japan is not FLOSS but ATOK has good 
linux binary. Some users love to use it.

If you need my help with Japanese charactors, please contact to me.

Regards

Re: Fast Track Pro sample rate problem

2010-06-21 Thread Andrew Euell
The FastTrack Pro is a interesting device. I have had lots of problems
with it but have been able to get it to work.
The 96khz 24 bit mode is only available when using a single output or
input. (Kind of a shitty situation)

Not sure why your playback rates and capture rates are different, and I'm
also not sure why it settles at 16bit.  I've never used a USB interface with
JACK before.  However,  I can maybe give you some info on other issues that
might help.

First, even though your interface (and many others) can do 96khz, you
probably should not use that high a rate.  The theoretical improvements in
quality do not outweigh the negatives.  It's a long topic, so I won't get
into it here, except to say that there's plenty of material to read on the
Internet about it (such as this informative thread at the Ardour forums:
http://ardour.org/node/3341).  This is probably one of the reasons  you are
getting so many X-runs.  I would suggest just using 44.1 khz.

Other than that, it would be nice to know more details about your set-up.
In particular:

-What kernel are you using?  If you're using an RT kernel, make sure that a)
you have JACK set to use realtime, and b) you have some sort of script
installed that sets realtime thread priorities (such as the rtirq-init
script in the repositories).  If you're using Ubuntu Studio, you should
already have this script installed.

-If you've got Network Manager installed (which you probably do), make sure
to disable networking prior to starting JACK.  You can do this via the
context menu by right-clicking on the notification applet.  Network Manager
has been known to cause issues with the sound server.

Those are the easy things to try out.  Hopefully they improve your
situation.
