[04:11] <jambeedrum> how does audacity stands for quality issues?
[04:12] <jambeedrum> sound quality i mean
[04:16] <holstein> jambeedrum: things generally sound like what they sound like
[04:16] <holstein> if you are using consumer equipment, and an internal sound card, those will the the "bottle neck"
[04:17] <holstein> you can generally bump the quality up on most DAW's to handle what the harware can throw at it, quality-wise
[04:17] <holstein> audactiy is not a DAW though
[04:17] <holstein> depends on what you need
[04:18] <holstein> will audactity record a stereo track at the quality the sound card is capable of providing it? sure
[04:18] <holstein> i wouldnt use it for multi-tracking... or editing much more than mono or stereo tracks
[04:18] <jambeedrum> i know these names: alsa, oss jack and one more i think
[04:18] <jambeedrum> pulse
[04:19] <holstein> yup
[04:19] <holstein> audacity is nice since it uses what you have
[04:19] <holstein> you dont have to learn about JACK to record a stereo track
[04:19] <holstein> ardour is the tool most folks use (myself included) and you need to lear JACK for that
[04:31] <jambeedrum> jackctl worked fine with me the 1st times i used , i got lucky i think
[04:32] <jambeedrum> cant i have pulse audio
[04:34] <holstein> jambeedrum: you already have pulse audio if you are using ubuntustudio
[04:34] <holstein> qjackctl is a GUI tool to start and configure JACK
[04:34] <holstein> if you dont need JACK, i wouldnt use it
[04:35] <holstein> audactiy doesnt work well with JACK
[04:35] <holstein> what are you trying to do?
[04:36] <holstein> audacity works fine with pulse
[04:45] <holstein> jambeedrum: im out for the evening
[04:46] <holstein> anymore questions should be directed here (with patience) or in #opensourcemusician
[04:46] <holstein> ....sorry.. thats #opensourcemusicians
[04:46] <holstein> cheers
[04:48] <XRS1> is it possible to get an on screen keyboard for the install?
[06:44] <zequence> holstein: PA works sort of the same with PA as it does with jack, IMO
[06:44] <zequence> It connects when it runs, and disconnects when it's not running
[06:46] <XRS1> 12.10 not running .sh files by double click?
[06:47] <zequence> XRS1: Depends on your settings, and if the file is executable
[06:48] <XRS1> yeah there is some one in #xubuntu who says they dont run any more so i tried it out n sure enough. local file, permission set, run in terminal option set, file does not attempt to exec
[06:51] <XRS1> doesnt matter to me i dont need it. just thought i'd pass it along. if you got an answer crazysurfer in #xubuntu is asking
[06:52] <zequence> XRS1: Are you running it from a usb stick?
[06:52] <zequence> oh, some other guy..
[06:53] <zequence> XRS1: anything on usb sticks will automatically not be executable
[06:53] <XRS1> i ran it from /home/user/Downloads
[06:54] <XRS1> aw well thats why. my /home is on USB
[06:55] <zequence> It's a security measure that was introduced some time ago. But, if you add it to fstab, with correct settings, it might work
[06:57] <zequence> What I do when I run scripts from usb is: bash <myscript>
[06:58] <zequence> You could also add your scripts to either /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin and either execute them from the terminal, or create desktop shortcuts for them
[06:58] <XRS1> well thank you
