You can still make pulseaudio connect with jack, making pulseaudio a jack client. Default settings in qjackctl make this possible. After starting jack, you will still need to set pulseaudio to use jack as its output in pulseaudio settings - also, sometimes you will need to reinitialize or restart any running pulseaudio applications. To give you a practical list of steps to take: 1. start jack with qjackctl 2. in pulseaudio settings, set jack as the output 3. now, start any jack or pulseaudio applications -- 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

Unless you realy need wine for something specific, you could spare a good share of computing ressources by dumping wine altogether and opting for one of the alternatives he suggests. :) -- Set Hallström AKA reSet Sakrecoer http://sakrecoer.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

I'm aware that guitar tuners are available in different good and different bad qualities, but in my experiences the Linux tuners that work, are all good. I anyway use a stand-alone-tuner instead of software. Test lingot, fmit, rakarrack, guitarix, gxtuner etc., simply install and launch synaptic and search for "tuner".

[ubuntu-studio-users] 14.04 suspend and pm-utils
FYI: sudo apt-get install pm-utils and a reboot seem to fix the suspend is not an option issue I've been having with ubuntu-studio 14.04. This is one of the packages that is installed by default on xubuntu but not ubuntu-studio. The reason it is necessary for the suspend to work is upower depends on pm-utils. I would suggest making it a default package for ubuntu-studio.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] 14.04
Hi, Gord. I think 'yet another xxx' is in the very deep nature of FOSS (Free or, at least, Open Source Software), GPLed, etx. It's something good and natural. It's the other side of the one-app-only proprietary monopolic scheme. Maybe it isn't perfect, but is better. And you just live with it, in a similar way you live with people saying stupidities just for the sake of free speech (and is not for chance that 'free, as in freedom' appears again).

/The solution to this problem will be fixed for 14.04, namely, the user will have the choice which metas to install. Maybe it might even be worth thinking about per package selection, but this remains to be seen./ Meta's tend to be almost as much of a mish mash and I am not sure where that comes from, the specialized distribution such as Ubuntustudio or upstream at Ubuntu, or even Debian. /In your case it sounds to me that what you want to do is not install any metas, and add individual packages afterwards, am I correct?/ Not sure how that works in the real world, but having done enough in attempting to modify a plain vanilla ubuntu, it seems to me there are modifications to be made in certain places, like adding the user to realtime access, noatime to disc access, and so on. I was thinking the user could then trip certain package groups or metas for voice recording, music production, photography and so on and the response would install what they need. At least there would not be software applied that just isn't going to be use. /The whole point of the metas is to provide all possible workflows, and at the same time work as a showcase for new users. It's a way to show what is available. There's no way we can make the metas suite every individuals particular needs. And if someone wants to see a wider range of metas, I'd like to see compelling reasons for doing so./ Compelling, I don't know but what I am saying is that perhaps refinement of metas is an area that could be an interest. Most users are musicians, some are musician/developers, some are content producers for media (internet, television, radio) some are hobbyists looking for some neat software to play with. Right now installing most distributions means sorting through the all of the above option. Musicians probably benefit the most from all of the stuff in the sound & video section. Content producers could use a bit more of a refined list of applications. Guitar boxes, synths and trackers would be uncommonly used and there might be a more robust requirement for something like Cinelerra which wasn't an option to install. Ubuntustudio thankfully does not do the software dump that other distributions tend to do. Moving to Gnome didn't help the matter because some of the functional menus were lost in that process. If I did not know what was functional for me, and was able to deal with it by setting up AWN or similar, I would have to surf my system each time to find the software I require. Well okay, I did that quite a few versions ago, and it lengthened the learning curve. It was great to see in 13.04 some functionality brought into the menu's but my choice of desktop was limited to one. In bringing this up I thought that perhaps it was or could be practical to do a Q&A install with the user based on use. /Currently, the ISO is quite small, about 2.5 GB. The menu is not cluttered, thanks to our custom categorization. From my POV, it's pretty well organized in that sense./ Agreed, and at my most critical I would say that it is a building block for further customization based on use. Except when you roll back to 12.04 LTS because of stability of gnome desktop. Something strange happened when I did that, so back I went to LTS releases, no upgrades only. /Ardour is not more advanced than it needs to be for what it is designed for. It's the only decent recording/mixing application for Linux, if you ask me. Audacity is not a recording tool at all. It's an audio wave editor. All though you can use it to both do multitrack recording and mixing, that is not what it was designed for, and it's quite poor at it as well./ Not a fan of Audacity, but thinking of beginners being overwhelmed with the multi track concept (no help from Audacity unless you set it not to spawn other tracks) but most of the plugins are built in, and its a little easier to understand coming from wave editors in Windows (in my case long enough ago) It wasn't until I dug into Adobe Audition that I found multi track to be useful for what I do. Ardour version 3, is an excellent tool for me, but those coming from a radio station environment are probably used to a far simpler system. I worked at 12 radio stations in my career and only one had multi track, very uncommon. For voice work its about the same thing as music production, getting the sonic truth playing back to you.
