Audio in Ubuntu Studio 12.10

2012-11-04 Thread Robin Darlington

Hello,
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just had a quick look at the 
website and did not find anything specific about this.


Is Real time audio working in Ubuntu Studio 12.10 ?

I have been using mainstream ubuntu for a while (since RT was broken in 
Studio) and have lost touch with the new releases. I would love to get a 
audio-friendly setup going again though!!


Thank you for your time.

Robin

Re: Ubuntu Studio 11.10 and the Goals for 12.04

2011-10-25 Thread Robin Darlington

Hi,
I have been using Ubuntu Studio for several years now and I love it, 
Ardour is my favorite daw... I have stayed with 10.04 + LXDE though 
because it is pretty stable and my laptop is 6 years old so I fear that 
upgrading the system will slow things down too much.


I would happily help with, or take care of, updating the website 
(depending on how much there is to do). Building and maintaining web 
pages is something I am pretty good at, so I feel this is a way I can 
contribute. You can check my work here : http://pranawebdesign.com


Please send me instructions on what there is to do and how to join in. 
Is there a separate mailing list or something for people contributing to 
the project?


Cheers,

Robin

Epitomizing simple and direct statements: this is kinda a 'meh'
release and it's my fault.  Fundamentally I believe this to be a
stable and functional release. But it has an unfinished or unpolished
look due to the XFCE transition remaining incomplete.

The team suffered some difficulties this cycle, but it is still my
responsibility and, therefore, my fault.  However, reflections have
given way to some insight on deficiencies and yielded some plans to
action that should improve our state.


Among these deficiencies we experienced:
* our goals and scope were too large
* our efforts were unfocused and not efficient
* started late in development cycle
* most new contributors failed to have an impact
* code changes lacked follow through


So, how will we improve these concerns?

Goals/scope to large - We were trying to fix everything and ended up
almost completing nothing. We are narrowing our focus for the upcoming
release, focusing on what we feel are the minimal priorities in order
to yield a quality release.

Unfocused, inefficient efforts - It is hard to focus on what to fix
and how to fix it without a plan. Using blueprints, creating
specifications, developing and assigning a sequential plan of action
should help focus our attentions where they are needed and give us the
efficiency these goals deserve. This also provides the structure and
support for others to assist.

Late Start - This is easy...start earlier! And having a well thought
out and documented plan helps. The small scope and blueprints with
specifications and steps are inspiring and development has already
begun!

New contributor's lacking impact - This may have been the most
frustrating deficiency of all. Obviously the public solicitation of
contributors is working, but the tools are lacking to engage and
support them. Much like the blueprints, a wiki page for future
contributors is being created that includes a listing of topics
requiring contribution, background on those topics, and steps
necessary to complete them.

Code changes uncompleted - This could be summarized as the lack of
getting our bzr branch updates pushed to the repository. The fix is a
double pronged attack; working more directly with sponsors and
developing repository permissions for specific team members. The
former will yield results quicker and the later will allow more
control but take longer to acquire.


So what are our goals? There are few and they are prioritized roughly
in the following descending order:
* updating website [1]
* -lowlatency kernel shipped as default [2]
* completing the XFCE transition (including icons and theme)
* live dvd [3]
* updating the LightDM theme

Updating the website may be a surprise as the first item, but the
current website makes it seem like the project is abandoned. The
update is already in progress and should take a nominal amount of time
to accomplish.

Shipping a tuned kernel for audio work is befitting a multimedia
distribution, hence the second positioning. This one probably has the
most difficulty to it and will almost certainly take a lot of
navigating to complete.

Completing the XFCE transition should not require much explanation. I
imagine we will lean heavily on what the Xubuntu team has already done
so we can complete this task as efficiently as possible.

A live dvd has been a desire for a while. This would ideally include
dropping the alternate installation image but hopefully also include
Edubuntu's ability to allow the user to select specific components for
installation via a GUI. Think of the later as the ability to select
specific work flows [4] during installation, e.g. recording a band,
creating music with synths/sequencers, podcasting, DJ'ing, film making
and creating videos.

Updating the LightDM them should also not require much explanation.
The LightDM used by Ubuntu Desktop looks nice so I am once again going
advocating we steal as much as we can to make our efforts efficient.


This may seem like a straightforward, obvious, and diminutive

Album recorded in Ubuntu Studio

2010-04-23 Thread Robin Darlington
Hi everyone !
Just wanted to share something with you all.
I have been using Ubuntu Studio since early 2008.

With my band (Something Else : http://www.somethingelsegroup.com )  we have
just released a home-studio album  made with Ubuntu Studio.

If you want you can take a listen to 3 of the songs here :
http://www.somethingelsegroup.com/en/music/come-with-us/

We recorded all the tracks and did all of the editing with Ardour. What a
fantastic tool !

Sadly the music was not mixed with Ardour though because, in our opinion,
the plugins supported on Ardour/linux do not equal those availble for
Logic/Mac osX.
I had some tries getting VSTs to work with a compiled Ardour and wine but to
be honest I did not find it very reliable and satisfying.
I look forward to a day when Ardour will work with all or most of same
plugins Logic and Protools do...


Take care and have a great Week End !

Robin

Re: Ubuntu Studio with Xfce or Lxde

2009-12-30 Thread Robin Darlington
Yes I had thought about doing that : bouncing down the drums to a stereo
track and so on. The disadvantage is that it then becomes a hassle to go
back and change something. As I am not a very experienced mixer it is likely
that it will happen to me a lot...  Thanks for the tip though!

Does anyone know if the freeze function in Ardour includes the plugins and
their automation ?
I haven't tried it yet but I just thought of it... and I will give it a go.

Robin

2009/12/30 Tommy yeah allornothin.to...@gmail.com


 Something I tried with a slower machine to use all of the plugins that I
 wanted was to mix down one effect at a time, so if i wanted a reverb on my
 drum tracks and eq's on all the rest of my tracks but couldn't run the
 session with that many effects I would solo my drums tracks with the reverb,
 mix those down to a single wet track and load the mixdown track back into my
 session so I no longer had to run the effect realtime.

Re: More File Sytem errors in Karmic

2009-11-14 Thread Robin Darlington
Ok thank you for your anwsers. I will avoid using the sleep function for
now.
I think I was using suspend, not hibernate (I used the function  on my
acer aspire 5630 laptop). And I have a swap partition which is slightly
bigger than my ram (996.2 swap for 993.2 ram) so that is no what is going
on. It could be a bug or my disk. I will look through the bugs when I have
time...
I was running hardy up untill my karmic install and I had no disk trouble
whatsoever so unless my disk is dying I suspect it to be a bug.

 Is it?
 Hibernation may be unavailable with automatic partitioning
 The default partitioning recipe in the installer will in some cases
 allocate a swap partition that is smaller than the physical memory in the
 system. This will prevent the use of hibernation (suspend-to-disk) because
 the system image will not fit in the swap partition. If you intend to use
 hibernation with your system, you should ensure that the swap partition's
 size is at least as large as the system's physical RAM.

Hi everyone,
Still concerning the problem I am having with Ardour and Jack, I have
made some progress: The Xruns occur when I have active LAPSDA plugins on
audio tacks. (I wanted to use a compressor and EQ per track).
 Is there something I can do about this?
 Have I missed a setting somewhere?
All help or suggestions are welcome.

I have replaced the nVidia card setting in xorg.conf with the proper one
that worked with 6.06.   But no luck.

I Slocated for .gnome2 and had so many that I'm reluctant at this time in
removing it from /home/ray/.gnome2 until I can know more about it.

It has many sub-dirs as /home/ray/.gnome2/   as well.
I am ignorant as to its usage and fear to render myself unable to enter the
OS at all...

/home/ray/.gtkrc-1.2-gnome2

Is there as well.  Same caveats apply...

?

Ray

What you get is the same desktop as was originally installed by Ubuntu.  New
.gnome2 etc. files and directories are created. System (OS  or X server)
settings, in the main, are not stored in your Home directory. The mv command
does not delete the files so you could reverse the process by mv
.gnome2.old  .gnome2 . You shouldn't need to though.

 I don't know if this is the proper forum... But,

 I have upgraded my Ubuntu 6.06 LTS to Studio 7.1 using a CD brought to me
 by a friend.  (Former friend??)  :-)

 ALL works very well except;

 ALL GUI screens/sub-screens have TEXT shown only as clear blocks.  ie; 3x6
 (5x9?) pixelations(?)  Icon names and Kicker Line. This, of course,
 renders the desktop all but unusable.

 The SET command shows the path as;


 PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

 I would certainly hate to have to reinstall 6.06 and lose a lot of work

 If anyone has some ideas I could surely use them as this has gone on for

Re: Launch all needed apps in a row with saved settings?

2007-12-27 Thread Robin

 Hi all,

 Ubuntu Studio became my main OS since 7.04 was released and even if I
 don't have enough time to really make music, I try when I have spare time.
 I usually launch these softs: QJackCtl, Patchage, JackRack, JackEQ,
 Hydrogen and Ardour. And I have a M-Audio Jam Lab to record my bass and
 guitar. I don't have any knowledge in how to make music on a computer but I
 try... :)

 My question is: I would like to find a way to launch in a row all the
 softwares I use and keep the settings I used for each piece I worked on.
 The best way would be to have a patchage-like application that could allow
 me to save a profile for each piece. For instance, I would work on a piece
 with Jack (of course), Patchage, Jack Rack (with some LADSPA loaded),
 JackEQ and Ardour.

 When I stop, I could save in a file all the settings used for that piece.
 Later, I could just launch that file, and it would launch all the softs
 used with all the settings (Effects in Jack Rack, levels in JackEQ, Ardour,
 connections in Patchage, ...).
 Of course, I don't have any skill in dev, and at the moment I just made a
 .sh that launch QJackCtl, wait for 5 sec (so the server can start) then the
 other softs.
 But of course the settings are not saved.

 Do you think something like that could be done?

 Cheers,

 Greg
