Re: Ardour Segmentation fault- won't start at all!
Goodmorning,
I made a memtest all night but it found no errors to my memories.
Also there are these files in the /dev/shm folder. Could you explain why should
I remove all pusle files? Do they cause any conflict with the programm?

Furthermore, I get this on my terminal when I run qjack and it runs perfectly.
Can you find something suspicious here?

Re: Ardour Segmentation fault- won't start at all!
Allright guys, I have just fixed the problem...with a trial and error method! I started unistalling one-by-one the packages that I have installed the last 3 days and I kept testing if ardour could launch each time I uninstalled something. When I uninstalled pavucontrol ardour launched perfectly!! I also uninstalled with autoremove libcanberra-gtk-module and libcanberra-gtk0 that pavucontrol automatically installed and which might caused the problem in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.4, as syslog was informing me whenever I launched ardour.

Hello there! The same also stands for me (until the last two days that I can't launch Ardour).

Googling around and trying for days, I haven't been able to solve the issue. Let's start from the beginning: I have got Lucid, and I used an italian guide to set the kernel rt and the programs. Then I proceded, using a guide on the web, to set up the card. It wasn't hard to succeed in make it blink (the usb light), and make the system recognize it (in the audio preferences I actually can see it, although it sometimes has input/output and sometimes only input...) The problem: as soon as I select it as output, I hear no sound.

As input, the sound recorder doesn't start, and I get no input level. That's all... i tried a lot of things.

Now I'm writing here... p.s.: it works with another O.S., something ugly with some strange name like Windows (seven...). Thanks Gyl Hi Giuliano, Is this yours? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1700445 Supposing the TASCAM keeps on being scheda:2, take a look at alsamixer -c2 and/or post the output of amixer -c2 I don't know if this card has an internal mixer that you can access from alsamixer though, just trying to guess. Try: speaker-test -Dfront:USX2Y -c2 You should hear pink noise. Another thing, have you tried with jack? Try for example: jackd -dalsa -dhw:USX2Y -n3 (This is in a terminal, as a test. There is a gui frontend called qjackctl or Jack Control. This command means, more or less: Use the alsa driver on the card hw:USX2Y in realtime mode, with 3 periods per buffer, 48000 kHz, 1024 frames per period). If jackd starts, install aqualung (a jack-aware audio player) and try playing a song. Many of us use jack to capture / playback audio. Actually, Linux DAWs depend on jack. Gnome sound preferences is a pulseaudio frontend. I don't know if pulseaudio works with your card or not, but you should use Jack if you want to record music. Note that both pulseaudio and jack use the alsa driver. Cheers, Pablo Hello Giuliano! (I have written this mail some 3 hours ago before your last reply and saved it for further editing. Nevertheless I send it now in case there is something that can help you. :) ) Eventhough I have only very little experience with ubuntu studio applications (just last week I set up my realtime kernel and system and it works perfectly with a very cheap usb audio interface of 12€!), I want to share it with you. You should work with Jack! Install it (as Pablo said, it's gui is called qjackctl), and make a good setup for your system. (I used this for reference: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToJACKConfiguration and maybe this for the whole system set up: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation) In the case that there is no problem with your audio card drivers (I can't help you here!) and Jack is configured properly, then you should hear sound form your card. In other words and since as you said you card is recognized from your system, if the sound isn't working, then you haven't configured Jack properly. In the setup menu of qjackctl , at the Settings tab you should try all possible settings, especially play with the driver, interface, input device and output device, in order to make the right configuration of your system. Normally, you will see your audio interface's name at the interface and input and output device options. Play with these, save your settings and hit start at the main window of Qjackctl to start the engine. -- 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

Q-TEC WEBCAM 100 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub alex@alex-ubuntu:~$ where C-media Electronics is the TBone usb (I suggest!) So, what do I have to do in order to be able to record through Ardour? Should I be able to see the usb device on QJack Connections manager? Thank you all in advance, all help is valuable! Alex its going to be challenging to talk you through getting JACK working via the mailing list... if you can come on the IRC, on freenode to either #ubuntustudio or #opensourcemusicians ...you can check http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main to see if that device is supported... im not a fan of those devices... ideally, you would have a microphone on the amp, going through a decent preamp either before or onboard an external audio interface... if you can return it, and get something even as basic as http://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_ucontrol_uca_202.htm and a mixer with decent preamps such as http://www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_xenyx_802.htm ..so much more versatility and function... -- Thanks for the tips Mike. However currently I don't have a mic, so the cost would rise if I had to bye one. I checked at alsa site as you advised, but I cannot identify the Tbone with the specific ID 0d8c:0008 that lsusb returned. This means that the device is not supported? Or am I doing this the wrong way? Should I search the device with any other identification tag? However, in the case that I can have access to a mixer (borrow from a friend), could I record my guitar only with the mixer? Off-topic: Never had IRC before, can I join the chat with an ICQ account or this is not the same case? :) Thank you once again, Alex -- 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
How can I record my guitar with the T.BONE USB-1G?
Hello guys to all of you. I am a very newbie with the ubuntu studio, although I use kubuntu many years by now as a simple user. I play guitar and I want to record my playing for sending it for an audition at a jazz university! So, due to financial restrictions, I have just bought the T.BONE USB-1G from Thomman. http://www.thomann.de/gb/the_tbone_usb1g.htm?sid=a939dfae3529d54ead5d2523ae73a789 However, I need your help to make it work, i.e record my guitar through any programme, like Ardour which I am trying to learn currently! Please, could someone guide me through the steps that I need to go, in order to be able to record my guitar? The only thing that I know to do is run on the konsole lsusb where I take : alex@alex-ubuntu:~$ lsusb Bus 002 Device 005: ID 0d8c:0008 C-Media Electronics, Inc. Bus 002 Device 002: ID 093a:2460 Pixart Imaging, Inc. Q-TEC WEBCAM 100 Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub alex@alex-ubuntu:~$ where C-media Electronics is the TBone usb (I suggest!)
