Re: Pulseaudio, qjackctl .. nearly working :(
The problem comes when using Audacious, it will act as if it is playing an mp3, but it is sort of stuck and althou I have clicked 'Play' the tack time does not move... when I stop qjackctl, Audacious will kick in and become un-stuck and just play as normal. Open pavucontrol, then select the pulse sink as the device for Audacious since it's not going through the Jack but waits for the real audio device to be ready. As soon as you switch to the sink, you'll be fine. When qjackctl is running, I have checked that jack is set as fallback in PulseAudio mixer I believe fallback means if the default audio device doesn't exist, use this one. It exists but in use by jack. Happy to be corrected. -- 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
Artistx?
Just noticed this on the Distrowatch's RSS feed, the aims appear to be identical to the UbuntuStudio or am I missing something?

Re: Studio + KDE
TSH said the following on 12/05/10 19:45: Does Studio 10.04 come with the KDE desktop as well as the default Gnome one? I realise this may be a stupid question, but when I log out of my usual Gnome session, I see the option to log back in to a KDE session. And yet this just results in a black, useless screen, with a mouse pointer over it. Did you install kubuntu desktop packages? I have to admit, I tend to start with kubuntu and then load studio packages so it always worked for me :) -- 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

It's quite cheap as far as I can see and I'm tempted to order one from Thomann just to try it out. What do they show up as? I guess the first one is simply a USB A/D, the specs say USB 1.1 so I guess it should show up as an USB Audio device and should simply work. If it shows up as a MIDI device, I'm definitely interested. The second should come up as a MIDI device. So far I had no problem with USB Midi devices, they tend to work most of the times. What do they come up as when you run lsusb?

This comes a bit a late for me because I've already converted my household to ext4 weeks ago. (Living on the edge, baby!) If you haven't used extents, your ext4 partition would be backwards compatible and you can mount it as ext3. Living on the edge with file system types also means occasional massive data losses.

Re: Forging a new path.
Ah, a long discussion. Just to cut it short: - Skype : some people just need it. I use it extensively with my Ubuntu Studio for my podcasts. - Other apps: I'm not making any money out of music, I use Ubuntu Studio because it's the best of the multi-purpose distributions designed with audio/graphics in mind. I can compile C code, write Java and do recording in the evenings w/o a single reboot and I really like it that way. - Geared for audio only: I hope not. There are plenty of distributions for that. I installed Musix 2.0 alpha today and it worked out of the box. Kudos to them. I would prefer my experience with Jaunty Studio will be the same (so far so good with the betas minus KDE 4(VIA chipset bug already open and confirmed but not fixed yet - (un) fortunately it works with Jaunty + Gnome (yikes!). - Pulseaudio vs. Jack : I'd prefer jack to be the default but hey, that's life. What I'd prefer is more stuff compiled with Jack support out of the box. I really got used to having loads of stuff compiled with Jack support on PlanetCCRMA, switching to bog-standard 7.04 was a bit of a rude suprise. It's getting better since then but I still compile most of my own stuff to catch up or have more libraries compiled in. /usr/local here is getting a bit crowded on my main audio lappie. - Longer release cycles following LTS : It's good on paper but not really, sorry. I compiled Rackarrak on my 8.04 studio laptop today because it's too new to exist on that one. It's brilliant and works wonderfully but I am definitely not a newbie and not a regular user either (having used Linux for too long helps). Especially Linux Audio software is advancing at a very rapid pace, I wouldn't like to reinstall/upgrade my laptops every 3 months but years between dedicated audio/video software would be a bit too much to bear (I don't have the same with my LTS web server, Apache + PHP don't advance as they used to). - Special Distribution: Well, lately I prefer installing Kubuntu and then pulling all of the ubuntustudio metapackages to get the studio stuff. If I was installing this lot in a dedicated studio environment I'd probably do it from the DVD. I hope creating the dedicated environment doesn't take that much of the efforts. Thinking about the average Ubuntu studio users (I'd guess it's not the majority of this mailing list) I would guess most of the Ubuntu Studio users are people who do audio or graphics on the side therefore won't really want just the audio stuff. On the other hand, having the special distributions work like marketing. I installed it on a couple of friends and they're quite happy (I have to admit I tend not to enable the realtime kernels on their Grubs). - Help: well, I run the Ubuntu Studio packages from alpha releases, I hope that counts. :) All I wanted to say is what you do is not necessarily what everyone else does. If we can't find what we need as users, we can just switch distributions, move on to something more suitable for us. There are plenty of choices, PlanetCCRMA used to be my previous choice of DAW, since then there are plenty more arriving to the scene. IMHO, what puts Ubuntu Studio aside is its resiliency, multi-purpose attitude: with minimal amount of work, it becomes an excellent distribution to be used for everything. Not perfect but still I think it's the best out there for what it can do. I would like to prefer to have it that way. Hmm, what else.. Ah yes... Good work! Keep on doing the good stuff.

My experience with 8.04 Studio kernels is the same - the wireless modules appear not to be loaded by default. I suspect this is to do with real-time stability. In my case (Dell Inspiron 9400) if I recall correctly the module is not even in the kernel.

M-Audio Quattro on 8.04
Hi all, I'm thinking about throwing this interface out of the window. The thing should have 4in and 4out. OK, it is USB1.1 therefore I can't get much performance out of it using 24/96 but I should work at least at 48kHz and 16 bit 4in. Right now I'm struggling to get more than two of the in channels working. Randomly one of the channels gets quickly overloaded and full of noise. One of them works reasonably well. Forget about the other two channels. Allegedly the device works with Alsa. On the other hand every trick in the Alsa project's web pages didn't work. Do anyone else have this interface? Any luck with it? The interface is OK, it appears to work perfectly fine on my brother's mac pro book thingie toy. :) I've been battling with this interface for a year now. I think I'm about to give up and go and spend some more hard-earned-cash. -- Hakan - http://www.hititgunesi.org -- 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
