| raven | hello I am new to ubuntu studio and I am trying to get things set up correctly | 00:28 |
|---|---|---|
| zequence | raven: What are you wanting to set up? | 00:28 |
| raven | using jack and patchage along with idjc none of the pulse audio jack modules are showing in patchage and I need to get them listed somehow | 00:29 |
| zequence | raven: That's cause patchage does not start jackdbus by default (think) | 00:30 |
| zequence | raven: You can check by doing, in a terminal: ps -eo comm | grep jack | 00:30 |
| zequence | raven: It is possible to start the jack sink and source modules for pulseaudio manually, but they won't start automatically unless you start jackdbus | 00:31 |
| zequence | raven: you can also start jackdbus manually, before starting patchage | 00:32 |
| zequence | starting jackdbus manually: jack_control start | 00:32 |
| raven | the list that came up from console is: jackd | 00:32 |
| raven | qjackctl | 00:32 |
| raven | qjackctl.real | 00:32 |
| raven | jackdbus | 00:32 |
| zequence | Then you have both of them running, all though, I think jackdbus is probably not processing audio right now | 00:32 |
| raven | idjc wont run without jackdbus | 00:32 |
| zequence | Close patchage | 00:33 |
| raven | ok | 00:33 |
| zequence | Kill jack, and jackdbus: killall -9 jackd* | 00:33 |
| raven | ok | 00:34 |
| zequence | raven: Wait, that won't work | 00:34 |
| zequence | killall -9 jackd | 00:34 |
| zequence | Then, killall -9 jackdbus | 00:34 |
| raven | ok | 00:34 |
| zequence | raven: You can close qjackctl too, btw | 00:34 |
| zequence | if you want | 00:35 |
| raven | i did | 00:35 |
| zequence | raven: Hopefully the right device is chosen to be used with jack | 00:35 |
| zequence | raven: Actually, it might be smart to use qjackctl for starting jack | 00:35 |
| zequence | for this reason | 00:36 |
| raven | it's set for default which HW0:0 | 00:36 |
| zequence | I usually always set it to use my device by name ID, instead of number ID | 00:36 |
| zequence | If you have more than once device, there's no garantee that they will boot in the same order | 00:36 |
| zequence | you can see the name of your card, by doing: cat /proc/asound/cards | 00:37 |
| zequence | This is the card I use: | 00:37 |
| zequence | 0 [M66 ]: ICE1712 - M Audio Delta 66 M Audio Delta 66 at 0xd040, irq 21 | 00:37 |
| zequence | The name ID is "M66" | 00:37 |
| raven | okay so my id is nvidia | 00:38 |
| zequence | raven: HDMI? | 00:38 |
| raven | hdmi and analog | 00:38 |
| zequence | My HDMI doesn't even start with jack | 00:38 |
| raven | i was worried till i brought up idjc and heard my stream through my speakers | 00:39 |
| zequence | Anyway, you can write it manually into the "Interface" field in "Setup" of qjackctl | 00:39 |
| zequence | The relevant config file for jackdbus is in ~/.config/jack/conf.xml | 00:40 |
| zequence | Mine looks like this | 00:40 |
| zequence | <drivers> | 00:40 |
| zequence | <driver name="alsa"> | 00:40 |
| zequence | <option name="device">hw:M66</option> | 00:40 |
| zequence | <option name="capture">hw:M66</option> | 00:40 |
| zequence | <option name="playback">hw:M66</option> | 00:40 |
| zequence | qjackctl will write that for you | 00:40 |
| zequence | those were the relevant lines | 00:41 |
| zequence | So, either use qjackctl to start jackdbus, or from the commandline (if your config file is right): jack_control start | 00:41 |
| zequence | let me try patchage with jackdbus.. | 00:42 |
| raven | okay | 00:42 |
| zequence | raven: Yeah, working | 00:45 |
| raven | okay | 00:46 |
| zequence | raven: So, all you need to do is make sure you start jackdbus, not jackd, if you have pulseaudio-module-jack installed, and the module will auto start the jack sink and source | 00:46 |
| raven | qjackctl starts both jackd and jackdbus | 00:47 |
| zequence | raven: It will only start one of them | 00:47 |
| zequence | not both at the same time | 00:47 |
| raven | how do i have it start jackdbus over jackd | 00:48 |
| zequence | raven: The setting for that is at: Setup -> Misc -> Enable D-Bus Interface | 00:48 |
| zequence | But, once you've made the settings you want, with qjackctl, and you are sure they will always work, you can just start it from the terminal with: jack_control start | 00:49 |
| raven | i had that set already but i still don't get the pulsejack sync and such in patchage | 00:49 |
| zequence | You could even make your won desktop file, or script, starting patchage by first starting jackdbus | 00:50 |
| zequence | raven: Worry about making the module start first. Then worry about patchage | 00:50 |
| zequence | Is pulseaudio-module-jack installed? | 00:50 |
| zequence | And sometimes, if you've been starting stopping jack for many times, the module may not initialize. Happens to me sometimes | 00:51 |
| raven | yes i have it installed | 00:51 |
| zequence | raven: Make sure jackd is not running now | 00:51 |
| raven | by running the command you gave me earlier? | 00:52 |
| zequence | raven: You can check if the module is running by doing: pactl list | grep jack | 00:52 |
| zequence | you should see a bunch of lines about jackdbus detect and things like that | 00:53 |
| zequence | raven: First, close all applications that you are using for jack. Then kill all jacks | 00:53 |
| raven | it is only showing module-jackdbus-detect | 00:53 |
| zequence | raven: That means the module did not initialize the sink and source | 00:54 |
| zequence | raven: To kill jacks: killall -9 jackd | 00:54 |
| zequence | killall -9 jackdbus | 00:54 |
| raven | okay | 00:55 |
| zequence | raven: confirm they are all dead, by doing: ps -eo comm | grep jack | 00:55 |
| zequence | It should return nothing | 00:55 |
| zequence | If you're still seeing something, kill it | 00:56 |
| zequence | Then, open qjackctl, and start jack. Confirm that you see the PA sink and source in "Connect" | 00:56 |
| raven | okay all jack is dead | 00:56 |
| zequence | If you don't see it, we need to restart pulseaudio | 00:57 |
| zequence | Just kill it, and it will respawn: pulseaudio -k | 00:57 |
| zequence | and then, also, restart jack | 00:57 |
| zequence | ..if needed | 00:57 |
| raven | brb | 00:58 |
| raven | back | 00:59 |
| raven | omg i finally see them thank you | 01:00 |
| zequence | raven: If you are using "hw:nvidia" as your card ID, you could write a starter script for patchage, like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/5700232/ | 01:04 |
| zequence | And, then, if you want, make your patchage desktop file point to the script | 01:04 |
| raven | okay ty | 01:04 |
| zequence | np | 01:06 |
| raven | zequence i did notice i am still missing one thing in my patchage the jack_capture | 01:09 |
| zequence | raven: hmdi doesn't have capture, as far as I know | 01:09 |
| zequence | Ah, that's why I can't start it, of course | 01:09 |
| zequence | I need to specify output only | 01:10 |
| raven | okay i might be able to do what i need without it | 01:12 |

| TheBingsta | <TheBingsta> i am having some problems with my ViewSonic Monitor. it is acting as if there is no input, when it is enabled. | 17:46 |
| SunStar | are you sure it hasnt died? | 17:50 |
| TheBingsta | i am sure, it works on my server. (next to the pc) | 17:50 |
| SunStar | what video ddriver are you using? what graphics chip? | 17:50 |
| TheBingsta | is there a way of finding out? | 17:51 |
| SunStar | in terminal type lspci to see what graphics adapter you have, and launcher menu -> system -> Software Updater -> Settings -> Additional Drivers | 18:05 |
| TheBingsta | 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI BeaverCreek [Radeon HD 6530D] | 18:11 |
| TheBingsta | recommended video driver | 18:12 |
| SunStar | more than likly, you need the proprietary AMD driver. you can get it in that Aditional Drivers tab in Software Updater or in the Ubuntu Software Center. Package Name: fglrx | 18:13 |
| SunStar | or from the AMD website | 18:14 |
| zequence | I'm not so sure | 18:14 |
| zequence | AMD free drivers are pretty functional | 18:14 |
| zequence | And proprietary drivers will probably not work on any release after 12.04 (at least it was so until a few months ago) | 18:14 |
| SunStar | i know HDMI doesnt work without it | 18:15 |
| zequence | Really? I was even playing HL2 on free drivers last year | 18:15 |
| SunStar | well at least on mine, the HDMI doesnt function using x.org driver, you need fglrx | 18:16 |
| TheBingsta | nope didn't work | 18:19 |
| TheBingsta | and its not hdmi cable.. VGA | 18:19 |
| zequence | TheBingsta: Sure you have the right resolution for it? | 18:21 |
| TheBingsta | yes. | 18:21 |
| TheBingsta | i have tried lower resolutions as well | 18:21 |
| DarkEra | TheBingsta, you installed the proprietary drivers? | 18:22 |
| TheBingsta | yes, still nothing. | 18:22 |
| SunStar | did you restart? | 18:23 |
| DarkEra | rebooyed to make them work? | 18:23 |
| DarkEra | rebooted* | 18:23 |
| TheBingsta | yes.. works on bios but not ubuntu | 18:23 |
| TheBingsta | it was a restart after using ArandR that mucked it up. | 18:23 |
| TheBingsta | let me go for another re-boot. | 18:23 |
| TheBingsta | brb | 18:24 |
| TheBingsta | hello | 18:34 |
| TheBingsta | i got the 2nd monitor working.. however now i can't setup dual screen | 18:34 |
| zequence | I've personally had more problems with dual monitoring using the proprietary drivers | 18:47 |
| SunStar | dual monitor always worked well for me untill the radeon HD series | 18:48 |
| FisherMack | Hey hey hey | 19:58 |
| TheBingsta | re-installing worked | 20:17 |
| SunStar | re-installing xubuntu? | 20:18 |
| SunStar | ubuntu studio* | 20:18 |
| TheBingsta | yer. | 20:28 |
| FisherMack | Anyone know of a good soundboard app? I searched USC but didn't find anything | 20:37 |
| Len-nb | FisherMack, I am not sure what a "soundboard" is. Can you describe it? | 21:11 |
| c4rt0m4nci3n | ola | 21:47 |
| SunStar | a sub-straight with buttons. each button plays a sound | 21:58 |
| SunStar | great for using celebrity voices to make prank phone calls | 21:58 |
| len-1304 | SunStar, That sounds like a sampler to me. Specimen does that. It is possible to have different samples for each key. vkeyb would map the keys to the text kb. | 22:09 |
| len-1304 | That is maybe not the most effective way of doing it though. | 22:10 |
