[01:19] hello everybody... [01:23] i just got ubuntu... i m coming form ubuntu 11 and never knew about studio... since im musician and writer I hope to learn well... can recomend a studio tutorials site? === unit193_ is now known as TheDrums === holstein_ is now known as holstein === astraljava1 is now known as astraljava [07:25] why in the spanish room not have a peaple? xD [07:25] my english is bad [07:26] my question [07:26] Hello layan [07:26] i need a distro with capacy for edit sound [07:26] and i think in ubuntustudio [07:27] who support have ubuntustudio? [07:27] sorry my english xDC [07:27] xD [07:28] Well, Ubuntu Studio is specially meant for audio/graphics/video. [07:28] It is the same as Ubuntu, but adjusted for multimedia [07:28] So, you will find all the same packages(programs) in the Ubuntu repository [07:30] layan: The latest release, 12.04 LTS. You can try without installing. It's a live CD http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/releases/precise/release/ [07:31] layan: You can make a bootable usb stick with unetbootin, if you like. [07:34] I use "Yumy software" for make a booable usb [07:35] Who desktop use UbuntuStudio? unity? kde? gnome-shell? [07:35] XFCE [07:36] can i use in ubuntustudio a microphone by usb? [07:37] layan: I guess it depends on the microphone. My advice is, try the live cd. If it doesn't work, come back and explain what you are trying to do [07:37] Maybe we can help [07:38] ok, thanks :) [07:38] layan: Ubuntu Studio does not have special support for devices, so it should be the same on all new Ubuntu versions [15:17] Is this in a usable state yet for Precise? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation [15:18] I've a vanilla 64-bit 12.04 install and am eager to try it, get the right kernel and softsynths, JACk etc working but can't screw up this system either :D [15:52] tehowe: there is no "right" kernel [15:52] ubuntustudio is shipping with a lowlatency kernel [15:52] you can try the generic one you have, and move on as you need [15:53] you can open the package manager of your choice and search ubuntustudio.. you will find the metapackages if you choose to use them [15:53] you can install those, and "convert" to ubuntustudio, or just install what you want/need [15:53] I see... I guess I'd want to get the lowlatency in, ideally, but it is a hexcore system so maybe latency wouldn't be an issue [15:53] tehowe: dont "guess" [15:53] try the generic [15:53] then go to lowlatency [15:53] then, you can try realtime from PPA if needed [15:54] tehowe: its not so much about the hardware or the system, its about what your needs are [15:54] I was just wondering if those instructions for putting the audio architecture of Ubuntu Studio into my regular Ubuntu installation are, umm, stable release (or at least RC equivalent) [15:54] if you are doing realtime synthesis, or realtime effects then you need lowlatency.. otherwise, you really dont [15:54] tehowe: right, you dont *need* to do that [15:55] tehowe: you can just install what you want/need [15:55] you can install JACK and whatever software you want [15:55] OR, you can open the package manger of your choice, and search ubuntustudio, and read about the metapackages available that will change your current installation quite a bit [15:56] tehowe: there is no "audio architecture" [15:56] ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu [15:56] same repos [15:56] you can installl the lowlatency kernel right now if you want it [15:57] tehowe: the 12.04 releases of all the ubuntu variants are stable and long term support versions [15:57] tehowe: the ubuntustudio iso is live now, so you can test out whatever you might want to use from the ubuntustudio metapackages, or just test a lot of the audio/video software available [16:05] My DNS is rubbish these days sorry [16:05] tehowe: no worries... that page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudioPreparation looks current [16:05] describes most of what i was going on about [16:05] tehowe: i say, take it slow, and decide what you need [16:06] ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu, but its quite different in everyway, and mostly overkill for most needs [16:18] Hmmmn well I've added pulseaudio-module-jack and qjackctl but unfortunately jack won't start - can't find hw:0 and won't allocate memory (I turned RT off) [16:18] doesnt matter if you turn it off anymore [16:19] i would just trouble shoot JACK, separate from the pulseaudio module [16:19] did JACK start before that? [16:19] have you *ever* seen JACK running on that hardware? [16:19] is pulse working normally? [16:19] 1) On Maverick 2) Yes [16:20] i would troubleshoot as root [16:20] gksudo qjackctl [16:20] if jack starts as root, you can look at common permissions erros [16:20] errors* [16:20] user in the audio group... etc [16:21] looks to me like, JACK cant find hw:0 [16:21] makes me think you dont have JACK configured to use the hardware you have [16:22] Yes, exactly... so my best reference would be jackaudio.org I'm guessing [16:23] tehowe: i usually just use the dropdown menu to try all the options [16:23] there should only be a few [16:23] maybe theres 6.. i still think its quicker than searching around [16:24] when you get it starting as root, then you can move on knowing you have it configured properly [16:24] those names can "jump" [16:24] if you have a USB device, and an internal for example.. one can be hw:0, and you reboot, and its hw:1 [16:24] i usually suggest trying to disable internal cards in the bios when possible [16:25] i also just go ahead and try all the combinations.. no one can really help you specifically unless you find someone with the exact same hardware/software case that has shared information [16:25] OR, the vendor would like to share information with the alsa team [16:26] Oh well that was easy - just had to point the output and input to my Audigy, I guess it wasn't pulling that in from pulse server somehow [16:26] 'default' [16:27] Now I have to find something to make a sound through jack... err yoshimi maybe [16:27] sure [16:28] you likely dont need JACK anyway with that hardware [16:29] What's the virtual keyboard package called [16:29] theres one in the menu in yoshimi [16:30] i would just search the package manager of your choice for"virtual midi keyboard" [16:30] i dont recall, but i think one is vkbd [16:33] *Searches for Yoshimi default bank* [16:39] I've gotten a really laggy sound using amsynth... so it looks like I'm on my way, just ahve to hack on it more as time permits. Thanks for your help today [16:40] sure [16:40] enjoy! === classic is now known as Adam313 [21:58] hi everybody [21:58] i have a big issue with ubuntu studio [21:59] yesterday i have update to 10.10 [21:59] today i was checking the jack [21:59] and also recording with rosegarden [21:59] but [22:00] when i launch audacity to mixdown and record the output of rosegarden [22:00] the soundblaster starts to emit a tedious single tone [22:00] from the speaker [22:00] no more sound [22:00] only this continous tone [22:00] i have restarted the PC and also power off [22:01] but when ubuntu is loaded the tone started to sound [22:01] i have also boot with xp and the soundblaster works fine in that case [22:01] when i come back to ubuntu studio [22:01] the noise come back as well [22:03] hey [22:04] no idea About?
