| acmeinc1 | len, and whomever else i mentioned regarding my frequent freezes. it looks like it is a hardware issue. I sent my Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 back and I'm picking up a similar Asus. I hope this corrects everything. I am using an older Athlon II board now, which has been running smooth for just about 24 hours. I am yet to test the bluetooth issues though | 04:28 |

| davey | hey guys | 14:01 |
| aram | hi | 14:01 |
| aram | I have a problem with the PulseAudio -> Jack integration. | 14:01 |
| davey | what java plugins are available for browers? only one i can find icedtea keeps on crashing :( | 14:02 |
| aram | I have a M-Audio Profire 610 card (firewire). | 14:02 |
| aram | I use it with ffado in jack. | 14:02 |
| aram | and pulseaudio JACK sink looks like a 7.1 card. | 14:02 |
| aram | and pulseaudio uses all those channels. | 14:02 |
| aram | while I listen to stereo. | 14:03 |
| aram | it makes no sense, I don't mind if PA doesn't see all the channels this card has. | 14:03 |
| aram | but I want stereo music to remain stereo. | 14:03 |
| aram | any hints? | 14:03 |
| len-dt | aram, The only thing I can think is to turn down/off the chanels you don't want to hear with the pulse volume control. | 14:04 |
| len-dt | You may have to unlock the link between chanels | 14:04 |
| aram | I did that but it's still not right. Only those 2 channels get any signal, but it's distorted, it's not the original stereo signal. | 14:05 |
| aram | isn't it possible to configure the number of channels the Jack sink has? | 14:05 |
| len-dt | I think it is, but I don't know how. I haven't really played around with it that much. | 14:06 |
| len-dt | Have you tried unconnecting the chanels you don't want in the jack connect box? | 14:07 |
| aram | well yes, that mutes them, but the sound I get on the two channels I want still is not the original stereo source. | 14:08 |
| len-dt | I have a 4 track card... that looks like 10 channels in pulse-jack. I only have the two channels pulse uses for left and right connected to an amp and it seems ok. | 14:10 |
| len-dt | How does it sound with just pulse and no jack? | 14:10 |
| aram | impossible to tell, this card is not supported by alsa, it only works in Jack. | 14:11 |
| len-dt | Ah, Which channels are you using for left and right? | 14:11 |
| len-dt | Gotta go | 14:13 |
| aram | Front Left/Right are set in the PulseAudio thing and in Jack front-left/right are connected to firewire_pcm:..._Line_1_out and Line_2_out | 14:14 |
| aram | you can set "enable-remixing = no" in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf. | 15:22 |
| aram | that does it. | 15:22 |
| aram | thank you good people. | 15:22 |
| mbeierl | Using qtractor on ubuntu 11.10, with TAP Reverb ladspa plugin. The "reverb types" are listed only as numeric ids, not by name. How do I find out which number corresponds to "large hall"? | 16:14 |
| holstein | i would use the original audio tool... my ear | 16:15 |
| holstein | maybe asking the developer though, or troubleshooting the issue | 16:15 |
| holstein | maybe someone in #opensourcemusicians knows? | 16:15 |
| mbeierl | holstein, thanks. Unfortunately, I cannot get any of the TAP reverb settings to sound natural, so I was going through the docs, but my version doesn't line up with the docs from 2004 | 16:50 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Hey guys! Are anyone here experienced in setting up guitar effects with ubuntu? | 17:06 |
| sirriffsalot_ | If not, anyone aware of a/several guitar/effects IRC channel(s) in relation to Linux?:) | 17:07 |
| mbeierl | sirriffsalot_, what are you trying to do - record with effects, simply use the ubuntu box as an effect chain, or ...? | 17:20 |
| sirriffsalot_ | mbeierl: well, I am curious as to how I would go about rigging guitarix or rakarrack, or any available open-source software to get as close to the guitar sound of the beginning guitars of a song called "The Chosen Pessimist" by In Flames:) | 17:23 |
| sirriffsalot_ | mbeierl: no?:P | 17:41 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: you'd just need to load it up and dial in what you want | 17:51 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: uhm, dial in what I want?:S | 17:51 |
| holstein | there are all kinds of combinations such as using both of those tools (rakarrack and guitarix) together, and/or another tool or more | 17:51 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: correct | 17:51 |
| holstein | i dont think *anyone* will be able to tell you how to get the sound you are going for exactly | 17:51 |
| holstein | however folks in #opensourcemusicians might be more helpful | 17:52 |
| holstein | dialing in the sound you want is usually considered part of the fun though | 17:52 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: hmm ok. well, I have no idea what I am after in terms of all the options... What are some other guitar sweeties in Linux except rakarrack and guitarix? | 17:52 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: there are the actual affects you are going for | 17:53 |
| holstein | they are just effects, you can choose to use them on guitar or whatever | 17:53 |
| holstein | i use rakarrack on other things often | 17:53 |
| holstein | compression is used.. gates... you name it, you can load it up and put it on your guitar and dial it in | 17:54 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Hmm, alright:) Cheers mate | 17:54 |
| holstein | sure | 17:54 |
| holstein | look at someones pedal board | 17:54 |
| holstein | emulate | 17:54 |
| holstein | ask guitar players what they use and emulate that in the workflow | 17:55 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: i would make it dead simple | 17:57 |
| holstein | i would grab a clip and put it up | 17:57 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: I don't know anyone playing guitar who use linux haha:) | 17:57 |
| holstein | or link to a youtube vid | 17:57 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: so | 17:58 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: you just need to know the effect types | 17:58 |
| sirriffsalot_ | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wye6CygA0Lc :P | 17:58 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: then, by taking a logical leap, you can fill in that gear with effects from the FOSS toolkit | 17:58 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: you should link that in the other channel is what im getting at | 17:58 |
| sirriffsalot_ | FOSS toolkit.. | 17:58 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Doing that too | 17:59 |
| holstein | right now, you are asking a lot of a random passer-by | 17:59 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Alright! | 17:59 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: thats really not much distortion | 18:00 |
| holstein | theres a preset in rakarrack that'll get close to that though | 18:00 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: alright? Which one?:) | 18:00 |
| holstein | thats almost clean | 18:00 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: i dont know what its called | 18:00 |
| holstein | and i dont have it pulled up | 18:00 |
| holstein | again... just go through til you get one close | 18:01 |
| holstein | and then tweak from there | 18:01 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Ok, in the "standard set" of rakarrack? | 18:01 |
| holstein | yup | 18:01 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Strange... | 18:02 |
| sirriffsalot_ | I remember going through them a week and a half ago and not finding anything to my liking. Gonna look again in a while:) | 18:02 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Cheers for the help mate! | 18:02 |
| holstein | anytime! | 18:02 |
| holstein | you wont find that one | 18:03 |
| holstein | you'll find something with lowgain that you can tweak | 18:03 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: "won't find that one"? | 18:12 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: you wont find a magic plugin that is *exactly* what you are looking for | 18:14 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: imagin you are putting presets in a piece of software like that | 18:14 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: I get that of course:) | 18:14 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: just after a timesaver;D Cheers=) | 18:14 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: right on... try that channel i mentioned | 18:15 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: did, but no reply haha:) | 18:15 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: when i joined this channel, i waited liertally 2 weeks for a response | 18:25 |
| holstein | then, i just stayed and started answering questions | 18:25 |
| holstein | thats why i suggest "self discovery" | 18:25 |
| holstein | thats really what is going to get you exactly what you want in the end anyways | 18:26 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Yeah, but it's kinda hard to answer questions when you never get help in finding the answers before that... | 18:26 |
| sirriffsalot_ | The reason people ask questions here is to save lots of tireless googling I suppose... | 18:26 |
| sirriffsalot_ | I love helping people so:P Been at #ardour for some time now | 18:26 |
| holstein | cool.. glad to have you.. we can use the help :) | 18:26 |
| sirriffsalot_ | But yes, I agree about that, I know what you're saying;) | 18:26 |
| foormea | hi. i'm affected by a bug with pitivi the prevents me from rendering anything | 18:43 |
| sirriffsalot_ | foormea: pitivi? | 18:43 |
| foormea | what are my options to do my rendering? i have no other workstation with another distro installed and i tried running ubuntu 11.10 in a virtual machine and no luck | 18:44 |
| foormea | pitivi, yes, simple video editing program | 18:44 |
| holstein | foormea: i would get the config out of the way... either remove or rename in your /home directory or try with a new user account temporarily | 18:44 |
| holstein | foormea: i wouldnt expect rendering in VM to go well | 18:45 |
| foormea | no no it's a known/reported bug | 18:45 |
| holstein | foormea: cool.. it rendered for me in 10.04 | 18:45 |
| foormea | i'm just wondering if i could render using another program, but i don't know much abotu video editing file standards | 18:45 |
| holstein | you can try 10.04, or 12.04 is live | 18:45 |
| holstein | foormea: sure... choose one and give it a go :) | 18:45 |
| holstein | oenshot and kdenlive are popular | 18:45 |
| sirriffsalot_ | foormea: ah, cool. Will look into it, but can't help you there I'm afraid | 18:45 |
| foormea | argh... reinstalling a whole distro somewhere just to render something... :( | 18:46 |
| holstein | openshot* | 18:46 |
| holstein | foormea: sure.. or one of my other suggestions | 18:46 |
| holstein | foormea: i just wouldnt personally expect rendering in VM to ever go smooth | 18:46 |
| foormea | yeah | 18:46 |
| holstein | im unaware of a bug,, and the 12.04 CD runs live | 18:46 |
| foormea | i'll do it with my work laptop later. got a 11.04 or somethig on it | 18:47 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Is there a way of "saving" a ubuntu install on one computer and installing that copy on another computer? | 18:47 |
| holstein | foormea: srue.. or in the 12.04 live CD suggested | 18:47 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: you can close... you can try moving the /home directory | 18:47 |
| holstein | ubuntuone sync is an option as well | 18:47 |
| foormea | holstein: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pitivi/+bug/882790 | 18:48 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 882790 in PiTiVi "PiTiVi fails to render" [Critical,Confirmed] | 18:48 |
| holstein | foormea: im not going to be much help with that...im just saying it could be another issue other than a bug | 18:48 |
| holstein | you can try removing the config files, or one of the other things i suggested | 18:48 |
| foormea | ah okay. yeah i'll give it a try | 18:48 |
| foormea | thanks for yoru suggestions! | 18:49 |
| holstein | foormea: sure | 18:49 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: But that still doesn't save all my settings in terms of appearance et cetera:( | 18:49 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: it saves what you like | 18:49 |
| sirriffsalot_ | The home directory is just my files.. | 18:49 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: thats where those settings should mostly be | 18:50 |
| sirriffsalot_ | holstein: in terms of appearance? | 18:50 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Oh | 18:50 |
| holstein | sirriffsalot_: should be... on a user level | 18:50 |
| sirriffsalot_ | the .config etcc? | 18:50 |
| holstein | yup | 18:50 |
| sirriffsalot_ | Hmmm | 18:50 |
