david_anyone have document on how to detect firewire in ubuntu studio 12.10?  I have focusrite saffire pro 40.  I can't see it in Ardour 3.0 or 2.802:32
holsteindavid_: you use jack02:32
holstein!proaudio02:32
ubottuFor information on professional audio tools in Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro02:32
holsteinyou open qjackctl.. click on "setup".. choose the firewire driver, and save that, and try hitting "start"02:32
holsteinthen, you can move on to testing permission02:33
* holstein uses firewire in ubuntu02:33
holsteindavid_: if you have opend ardour without jack running, then you might have jack tring to run in the background02:33
david_in qjackctl "setup" I don't see my saffire pro 40 in "input device"02:34
holsteindavid_: you wont02:35
holsteindavid_: you select the firewire driver02:35
david_oh I see..02:36
david_keep everything else default?02:36
holsteindavid_: for now02:36
david_ahhh I see firewire devices now!!!  Thank you!!!02:37
holsteindavid_: cheers!02:38
david_from what I have read this will conflict with pulseaudio02:38
holsteincheck #opensourcemusicians too if its slow here and you need help02:38
holsteindavid_: this? jack?02:38
holsteindavid_: there is a pulse to jack module which routes pulse through jack02:38
holsteinif you want that.. thats one of the first things i disable02:38
holsteinbut, no.. pluse shouldnt conflict02:39
david_ok...02:39
david_how about play back in ardour, through saffire pro 40, mon 1, I can't hear anything.  It seemed to be connected already in jack.03:01
holsteinseemed?03:02
holsteindouble check03:02
holsteinsometime i just connect everything to everything and test03:02
holsteinmake sure the unit is setup properly03:02
holsteinmake sure you have headphones or monitors that work, and if there is a "playback/live" knob, that it is in the middle03:03
david_headphone is new.  Only have headphone connected.03:04
holsteindavid_: remove ardour from the equation03:06
holsteincan you play *anything* that you know works with something you know how to use?03:06
david_I was just now to play youtube through saffire pro monitor 1.  I can hear just fine.03:09
david_through head phone 1 I mean.03:10
holsteincool03:10
holsteinso, double check a few things with ardour03:10
holsteinif you have a track armed, it wont play03:10
holsteinif you hear *antying*, then you *can* hear audio from ardour03:10
holsteindouble chekc the routing03:11
holsteincheck*03:11
david_I was able to hear now but through line 8 and 9.  Not sure how headphone 1 and 2 is tied to line 8 and 903:44
david_Holstein - Thanks for all the help!04:11
david_how do you turn on sound for metronome in ardour 3?   I tried "enable/disable audio click" button but still no sound04:51
afflictoHello everyone. I'm trying to launch ardour but nothing happens when I'm about to "open project". I believe it has something to do with jack. please help!07:31
chescobien le bonjour a tous !10:33
smartboyhwHello10:33
chescoje découvre et cherche des possibilités avec ubuntustudio sur un eeepc10:34
chescoun asus eeepc 1225b10:35
smartboyhwGrrrr I don't know French10:36
smartboyhwWhere's ttoine!?!!/10:36
chescooh sorry i didnt c I was on a international chat :)10:36
chescosorry my eng is not very good blabla ;)10:36
smartboyhw:)10:37
chescowell, im just asking myself on possibilities to configure a rt kernel on my ubuntustudio10:37
chescoIm running on 64bit AMD ATI asus eeepc machine10:38
smartboyhwchesco, build it yourself?10:38
chescoI though about that, and I built many many kernel "'once apon a time" ^^10:39
chescodo u think its possible with a such computer ? reliable ?10:39
smartboyhwchesco, well we don't have an -rt kernel maintained now10:39
smartboyhwchesco, possible. I'm in a notebook and I compile -rt kernels (just for fun)10:40
smartboyhwWe are examining the possibilities of maintaining (not making it as default) the -rt kernel again10:40
chescothat could be easier for unlucky computer man :]10:41
chescowell, have to compile, have fun all, I be back ;)10:45
chescohey18:57
chescoIm asking myself on which kernel version I may use to compile it in realtime, can i download the latest 3.8.4 kernel version ?18:58
chescosorry sentence is broken, Im asking myslf concern the kernel version I can download on kernel.org to compile RT18:59
chescoim on ubuntu studio and it runs 3.5 lowlatency kernel atm18:59
len-1304There is a 3.8.* available with the rt patch19:00
chescowhere can i found it ?19:02
chescokernel.org?19:02
len-1304There was an announcement in the LAU list, but I can't find it... it was not put in the subject of the message it was in :P19:02
zequencechesco: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/19:03
len-1304Have you looked at https://www.rtai.org/ ?19:03
chescowell, I will check, I was sure I didnt explore all the possibilities... sorry19:04
len-1304Sorry?, good question anyway.19:04
len-1304I have not had any problem downloading and running a kernel from kernel.org19:05
len-1304I don't know about rtai, haven't tried that. Be aware that non-free video support may be an issue.19:06
chescoRTAI is a king of RT patch for linux kernel19:08
chescono?19:08
chesco^^19:08
chescoim not very skilled, I need to rtfm i think19:08
len-1304I am not so sure... looking at the site.19:08
zequenceRTAI is not really related to the realtime patch19:08
zequencechesco: The link I gave you has all the patches that are available. You can only build them for the kernels they are made for19:09
len-1304Ya it uses a kerenl patch but also an application interface.19:09
chescoho ok, but i think there is already app on the distro I use, thanks and bookmarked ;)19:10
len-1304If you are using ubuntu as a base the kernel.org is what we are based on.19:11
chescoyo :)19:11
zequenceThe Ubuntu kernel is not the same as the vanilla kernel. It has some Ubuntu specific patches19:12
zequenceUsing the vanilla kernel is no problem though19:12
zequenceThere might be problems with building graphic drivers, etc19:12
zequenceBut, it will run19:13
zequenceIf you want a Ubuntu -rt kernel, you will need to apply the patch to the Ubuntu source, which is not recommended, if you don't know what you are doing19:14
zequenceOr, at least you will probably have problems applying it, and building it19:15
zequenceThe Ubuntu kernel sources are here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git19:16
chescohum, well im on ubuntu studio, do i need to go there ?19:16
zequenceUbuntu Studio is Ubuntu, but as I said, you can run either kernel19:17
zequenceBetter you build the vanilla kernel anyway. Less problems19:18
chescolet's go :) thanks for tips. I'll return my experiences asap.19:21
chescois there any difference between "patches-3.8.4-rt2.tar.bz2" & "patch-3.8.4-rt2.patch.bz2" files ?19:26
chescono it's "patches-3.8.4-rt2.tar.bz2" and "patches-3.8.4-rt2.tar.bz2" ( mistake )19:27
chescoomfg lol... anyway ;)19:28
