=== olinuxx is now known as TikiBot === TikiBot is now known as Olinuxx [16:18] Hi, I am new, and trying to get pointed in the right direction for making contributions to ubuntu. I would appreciate any help. [16:18] hey dumbstupidhuman [16:18] ubuntu? or ubuntustudio? [16:19] ubuntu, im guessing this is the wrong place? [16:19] AH [16:19] not necessarily ;) [16:19] but yeah, this is rather ubuntustudio specific [16:19] dumbstupidhuman: i would look at... [16:20] http://loco.ubuntu.com/ [16:20] see if there is a local ubuntu team active near you [16:20] wonderful, thank you holstein [16:21] and try and find the channel that matches what your interested in [16:21] if your wanting to work with the kernel [16:21] I am a visual guy, interaction [16:21] i think there is an #ubuntu-kernel channel [16:21] i think there is an #ubuntu-kern ?? [16:22] theres an ubuntu channel for everything :) [16:22] wonderful [16:22] dumbstupidhuman: :) [18:05] hello all i am debating whether to install ubuntu studio...how is the music production on it? [18:05] hey wpots [18:05] are you running ubuntu now? [18:06] i have lots of experience developing with ubuntu..kub, linux mint [18:06] AH cool [18:06] but it is not my primary system any more [18:06] it was about 2 months ago [18:06] you can add the studio packages [18:06] or just whatever software you want to use [18:06] check out [18:06] ok ok [18:06] cool [18:06] !vanilla [18:06] To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation [18:07] OR apt-cache search ubuntustudio [18:07] or however you search [18:07] ok i will do that [18:07] wpots: works great [18:07] theres a podshow.. [18:07] and a channel [18:07] #opensourcemusicians [18:07] wpots: in my opinion, if you have linux experience [18:08] and your not tying to make ubuntu audio *be* something else [18:08] you'll love it [18:08] JACK is great [18:08] and ardour [18:08] MIDI is coming along all the tie [18:08] time* [18:08] MIDI and video editing :) [18:09] OK [18:09] * holstein gotta run [18:09] BBL [18:09] allright thanks for your help [18:09] ill give it a try! [22:04] Hello. I am trying to build a midia box suitable for capturing and processing audio. What software will I need? I also understand that there is some kind of an issue with realtime audio access, will someone please explain that to me? [22:06] NOMADICUS: hey [22:06] no issue really [22:06] NOMADICUS: do you use ubuntu? [22:07] holstein: Yes, but I am in the process of migrating to Debian. [22:08] AH [22:08] well, have a look at [22:08] !vanilla [22:08] To install Ubuntu Studio on top of a vanilla Ubuntu install, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/Installation [22:08] NOMADICUS: the ubuntustudio stuff is really just a collection of packages [22:08] you can search for ubuntustudio in synaptic or where ever [22:08] or sudo apt-cache search ubuntustudio [22:09] those wont be in the debian repos [22:09] but all the software should be :) [22:09] as far as realtime goes [22:09] i would just get into it, and see if you need it [22:09] most dont [22:11] http://www.opensourcemusician.libsyn.com/ [22:12] ^^ :) [22:14] holstein: Whenever I try to run Rosegarden it indicates to me that it requires realtime access. [22:14] holstein: These are great links! [22:15] NOMADICUS: how does it indicate? [22:15] what kernel are you running? [22:15] NOMADICUS: are you using JACK ? [22:15] JACK is really the key [22:16] this is a debian distro http://www.bandshed.net/AVLinux.html [22:16] runs live [22:17] you can get a feel of what is normally in an audio distro [22:17] also [22:17] http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/ [22:18] that being said, there is quite a community around ubuntustudio [22:19] holstein: 2.6.32-24-generic [22:20] NOMADICUS: no reason why you *need* a realtime kernel [22:20] for rosegarden [22:21] i would start JACK [22:21] and trouble shoot that to run with the generic kernel [22:21] and start using RG :) [22:28] This should help quite a bit, thanks. [22:28] :) [22:28] its do-able [22:29] with that generic kernel [22:29] also, theres linux-lowlatency [22:30] sudo apt-cache search linux-lowlatency
