| david__ | Just installed UbuntuStudio 11.10 today | 23:50 |
|---|---|---|
| david__ | Any tips on achieving low latency? | 23:50 |
| david__ | The documentation seems to be out of date. | 23:50 |
| holstein | david__: just try it 'as-is' | 23:52 |
| holstein | you can try abgogani's ppa | 23:52 |
| holstein | https://launchpad.net/~abogani/+archive/ppa | 23:53 |
| holstein | if you dont use JACK, you'll want to get familiar with it | 23:53 |
| holstein | you can ask around in #opensourcemusicians if its slow in here | 23:54 |
| david__ | I'm new to audio recording (other than audacity on Windows) | 23:55 |
| david__ | On Jack it says Latency 46.4 msec. I've read that it is supposed to be below 10 msec | 23:55 |
| holstein | david__: i say, fire up ubuntu, and install audacity, and 'get your feet wet' | 23:55 |
| holstein | david__: supposed to? | 23:56 |
| holstein | i can get under 1 | 23:56 |
| holstein | but i dont do that all the time | 23:56 |
| holstein | david__: what are you doing? | 23:56 |
| holstein | software synthesisers? | 23:56 |
| holstein | realtime effects? | 23:56 |
| holstein | if not, you dont need low latency | 23:56 |
| david__ | I'm needing some of the features of Ardour which is actually why I'm trying Linux | 23:56 |
| holstein | pesonally, i think 10ms is fine | 23:56 |
| holstein | anything over like 12ms, and i can tell | 23:57 |
| holstein | so, it really makes no difference | 23:57 |
| holstein | 15ms... 50ms | 23:57 |
| holstein | who cares | 23:57 |
| holstein | ardour compensates if you are overdubbing | 23:57 |
| holstein | im mixing something right now at 60ms or so | 23:58 |
| holstein | but, if i need a software synthesiser, i can push it to 2ms or whatever | 23:58 |
| david__ | I want to record from Rosegarden to Ardour | 23:58 |
| david__ | You say I don't need to worry about latency? | 23:59 |
