scriptwarlocko/ all02:28
scriptwarlockanyone knows some noise reduction plugins exists in ardour03:02
len-1204scriptwarlock, don't know what is a good noise reduction to use, ardour doesn't come with any plugins. It looks on your system to see what LADSPA or LV2 plugins are installed and can use those.03:29
scriptwarlockaudacity has one but it's tiresome jumping apps to another03:30
len-1204Th03:30
len-1204I'm not sure but I thought audacity used the same plugins... but maybe it has soem of its own too.03:30
len-1204I have used the one in audacity. But I don't know if it is also available elsewhere.03:31
scriptwarlockwas master some live recording ang found out some annoying buzz thats why im searching some noise redution tools for ardoue unfortunately gate is not the right one for this03:32
len-1204The one in ad03:34
scriptwarlockad?03:34
len-1204the one in audacity samples the noise and tries to take out anything like it..03:35
len-1204finger trouble.03:35
len-1204I see no LV2 filters like that.03:36
scriptwarlockhope someone can make some noise reduction tools for us03:36
scriptwarlockfor ardour03:36
scriptwarlockin a few days after i'm done with the website im making going to switch to ubuntu studio 12.04, any news about it?03:37
len-1204It's pretty much done for this cycle. There's a live dvd iso this time so you can look at it with out installing03:41
scriptwarlockyes checking03:41
len-1204The switch to xfce is complete.03:41
scriptwarlockso no unity?03:41
len-1204Some one has a method of doing that too. But for a lot of us unity just doesn't work and takes too much CPU/Memory03:42
len-1204I'm not the one to ask as I personally don't like unity for this kind of work.03:43
scriptwarlocki have downloaded a torrent US12.04 beta2 this is xfce?03:43
len-1204I figure unity is a good netbook DE though. US12.04 B2 is xfce03:44
scriptwarlockim good with xfce03:44
scriptwarlockperhaps lxde too is compatible with us12.04?03:45
len-1204It comes with a low latency kernel as well.03:45
len-1204I don't know lxde well enough to say.03:46
scriptwarlockok download is finished gonna try this to one of my machine03:46
len-1204Most of the apps will of course work, the themes are ok03:47
len-1204menus might not be the same on lxde03:47
scriptwarlockxcfe is fine03:47
scriptwarlocki have to trim down this ustudio my only interest is ardour and mixxx03:53
len-1204There are plans to have a setup that just installs the required apps03:54
scriptwarlockon video editors theres is openshot and was waiting for lightworks03:55
scriptwarlockwow on graphics theres too many of them that i dont want03:56
scriptwarlockand also on midi03:56
len-1204With the alt install we could have workflow installs. The live iso dosen't allow that.04:01
scriptwarlockoh04:01
len-1204SO the thought is to make an "after install" installer for workflows.04:02
scriptwarlockus12.04 is huge 2.+gig04:03
len-1204I think a lot of the stuff in the meta packages are now recommends, so removing one app should work.04:03
len-1204Yup, dvd only no CD04:03
scriptwarlockis it because of the default apps?04:03
len-1204Pretty much, most of the ubuntu distros had a very hard time fitting things into a CD. Most have some of their stuff installing from net.04:04
len-1204I think ubuntu desktop installs libreoffice from net for example.04:05
scriptwarlockwas thinking ubuntu studio is good for studios not for desktop usage04:06
len-1204That is the design thought too.04:06
scriptwarlockso omitting net apps is a better way of trimming down the iso04:06
len-1204The CD size has become a bit outdated. Most of us install from a usb stick... in fact this computer has no dvd/cd drive and that is the only way for me to install.04:07
len-1204I would like to have more control over what I load though04:08
scriptwarlocki am planning to have a recording studio sooner and was eyeing ubuntu studio04:08
scriptwarlockdoes ustudio support hardware like presonus or motu?04:09
len-1204It ouwld support whatever alsa supports, plus there is the firewire drivers.04:10
scriptwarlockyes firewire is still needed04:11
len-1204Firewire is going to get added to alsa, but is not there yet.04:11
len-1204I'm pretty new to all this, mostly doing testing to make sure it installs and runs.04:13
scriptwarlocklikewise here very noob on ustudio but not ubuntu04:14
scriptwarlockim still hoping unity is included on ustudio and assuming most users will use some hispec pc/laptop04:16
scriptwarlockbrb lunch time04:19
scriptwarlockno screenshots for ustudio 12.04 yet?07:31

ttoineinstall qjackctl11:47
ttoineand choose freebob or firewire in the driver section of the setup windows11:47
ttoineit is not possible to use firewire sound cards with pulseaudio11:49

ttoinewalidvb_, ok that's not the good version for firewire12:33

mtmshello all... is anybody out there to answer a very quick question?19:31
mtmsquick question: is it possible to upgrade from a vanilla Ubuntu 11.10 to a UbuntuStudio 12.04 (beta) without re-installing everything? a link to some how-to would be appreciated too19:38
holsteinmtms: you just install what you like19:54
holsteinpersonally, you will save time backing up and reinstalling19:55
holsteinyou would upgrade to ubuntu 12.0419:55
holsteinthen, search for "ubuntustudio" in the package manger of your chioce and install what you like :)19:55
holsteinyou dont *need* to convert19:55
holsteinyou just install the pacakges you want to use and use them19:55
holsteineither the big metapacakges like ubuntustudio-audio, or just the apps you want, like JACK and ardour for example19:56
mtmsty holstein, I'll experiment a bit on my "test" machine :)19:58
