| Drumplayr | Hi. Anyone here? | 03:24 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | \o/ | 03:24 |
| Drumplayr | What's up??? | 03:24 |
| holstein | not much... working on an album cover for my RPM challenge | 03:25 |
| Drumplayr | I'm a Ubuntu Studio Newbie and have a question. | 03:25 |
| holstein | sure... | 03:25 |
| Drumplayr | Sounds cool! | 03:25 |
| Drumplayr | I've got a Presonus Firepod connected via Firewire... | 03:26 |
| Drumplayr | and I was hoping to use my Sound Blaster Live! card for playback/monitor. | 03:26 |
| Drumplayr | But I can't seem to get the Firepod and the sound card to work at the same time. | 03:27 |
| holstein | i dont | 03:27 |
| holstein | i have the firepod too | 03:27 |
| holstein | i would just use it | 03:27 |
| holstein | AFAIK, you wont easily use alsa drivers for the SB and the ffado driver for the FW device at the same time with JACK | 03:28 |
| holstein | one way to go is to just let pulse use the SB and JACK use the firepod | 03:28 |
| holstein | personally, i would just not use that SB | 03:28 |
| Drumplayr | Is there a way to make pulse and jack work at the same time??? But I think you answered my question. It's probably not worth the time to figure out. | 03:29 |
| Drumplayr | I've been gathering parts for a couple years to build this box (I'm a poor musician). I finally got it built last night and have been up for 36 hours playing with it. | 03:30 |
| Drumplayr | A friend of my has a really good PC running Sonar. I built this machine on Linux so I can compare the perfomance. | 03:31 |
| holstein | for me.. i just start JACK with the firepod, and pulse is still running on my internal sound card | 03:31 |
| holstein | Drumplayr: i actually choose to use this software and linux for the performance | 03:32 |
| Drumplayr_ | Srry bout that | 03:35 |
| Drumplayr_ | So you can hear the playback while recording? I can't | 03:35 |
| holstein | Drumplayr: 11.10 has pulse routing to JACK | 03:35 |
| holstein | or is trying to at least | 03:35 |
| holstein | so, pulse stops, and tries to route through JACK | 03:35 |
| holstein | i personally dont want that, but whatever | 03:35 |
| Drumplayr_ | In order to hear what I've recorded, I have to unload the firewire driver inside Jack and load ALSA in to Jack. | 03:36 |
| holstein | yeah? | 03:36 |
| holstein | why? | 03:37 |
| holstein | audacious plays audio files with JACK | 03:37 |
| Drumplayr_ | I guess that's the newbie in me. | 03:37 |
| holstein | ardour is what i track in | 03:37 |
| holstein | i just play back there | 03:37 |
| Drumplayr_ | oh.. so I'll give that a try. | 03:38 |
| Drumplayr_ | So how do you get Audacious to play the audio files? | 03:41 |
| holstein | i just hit the play button | 03:41 |
| holstein | after setting the JACK output | 03:41 |
| Drumplayr_ | Audacious doesn't show up in Jack. Gotta troubleshoot some more. | 03:42 |
| holstein | Drumplayr_: you have to set the output to JACK in audaious | 03:42 |
| holstein | audaciouse | 03:42 |
| holstein | then you have to play the file | 03:42 |
| holstein | then it shows up in JACK | 03:42 |
| Drumplayr_ | Still not having any luck | 04:03 |
| Drumplayr_ | Audacious shows up as a readable client but not a writable | 04:04 |
| holstein | Drumplayr_: not sure what to tell you | 04:07 |
| holstein | i would close it.. install VLC and the JACK plugin | 04:08 |
| holstein | or try aqualung | 04:08 |
| holstein | or just play the thing in the application you are tracking in to monitor | 04:08 |
| Drumplayr_ | So basically you're saying I should find another application to be my output for ardour? | 04:10 |
| holstein | Drumplayr_: im saying just play it in ardour | 04:11 |
| holstein | OR, if audacious is giving you a hard time, try something else | 04:11 |
| holstein | my workflow doesnt consist of exporting tracks and then listening to them | 04:11 |
| holstein | i just listen in ardour, and mix/master.. or whatever and then export them | 04:12 |
| holstein | if i need to audition them further, i fire them up in audacious | 04:12 |

| cwillu | er, ./kernel/sched_* I mean | 09:32 |
| cwillu | anyone with any interesting opinions on any combination of jack, non rt kernels and pianoteq? | 09:33 |
| * cwillu seems to have such a thing working without xruns, but would like to compare notes re: what acceptable latency would typically be, etc | 09:34 | |
