| FisherMack | Hey folks | 09:41 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, greetings | 09:42 |
| FisherMack | Can anyone suggest a good sound card for recording mostly speech but occasionally music as well? | 09:42 |
| FisherMack | howdy, cfhowlett | 09:42 |
| zequence | cfhowlett: we don't do a lot of meetings these days. All though, we meet online pretty much every day | 09:43 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, i'm guessing this is for a desktop box? | 09:43 |
| FisherMack | I need something that will play well with ubuntu | 09:43 |
| FisherMack | Yeah | 09:43 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Sound-HOWTO/x96.html | 09:43 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, done and done | 09:43 |
| FisherMack | Look at ya go.. lol Thanks cfhowlett | 09:44 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, errr or not. OLD list | 09:44 |
| zequence | FisherMack: What is more important than your device is propably what microphone you use, depending on your needs | 09:44 |
| FisherMack | Well I will be using a mixer and amp. I connect my mics to my mixer and my mixer to my amp and my amp to the sound card. | 09:45 |
| zequence | http://wiki.linuxmusicians.com/doku.php?id=hardware | 09:45 |
| cfhowlett | FisherMack, mixer? or interface? | 09:45 |
| FisherMack | Behringer Xenyx 502 | 09:46 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Why not connect the mixer direcly to the sound device? And what kind of amp are you talking about? Stereo AMP? | 09:47 |
| FisherMack | Weeellllll that's just it... Money is lacking and I don't have the best of equipment. The amp I am using is a Fender Bullet 150 | 09:48 |
| zequence | FisherMack: For recording, it is more important with a good audio device, but I suspect you can get pretty decent results using just a builtin, if you have an ok mic and mic amp | 09:48 |
| zequence | I haven't tried that myself for about 12 years or so | 09:49 |
| zequence | builtin cards have progressed since then :P | 09:49 |
| FisherMack | Yeah, I am using my builtin card for the input.. My sound only seems to work for OUTPUT and none of my INPUTS work so I have to use the builtin | 09:50 |
| zequence | FisherMack: You have multiple devices? | 09:52 |
| FisherMack | I have the builtin, an ASUS Xonar DG and an NVIDIA video card with HDMI support | 09:52 |
| zequence | oh, right | 09:53 |
| zequence | hdmi will only work for output of course | 09:53 |
| FisherMack | right but I don't use it for that anyhow... I use it to my 2nd monitor | 09:54 |
| FisherMack | But the HDMI shows up in my audacity | 09:57 |
| FisherMack | but the inputs on my sound card do not... | 09:59 |
| FisherMack | I can only figure it is something with my card doesnt like | 09:59 |
| FisherMack | which is why I was asking for suggestions for good sound cards for ubuntu | 10:03 |
| zequence | FisherMack: I still think it's strange it doesn't work | 10:04 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Do inputs work with pulseaudio? | 10:04 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Also, are you able to start jack at all? | 10:05 |
| FisherMack | lol | 10:11 |
| FisherMack | No and No | 10:11 |
| FisherMack | Inputs don't work whatsoever | 10:11 |
| FisherMack | On the sound card that is. The builtin inputs work | 10:12 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Then it's a alsa bug. Have you reported a bug? | 10:19 |
| FisherMack | No | 10:25 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Do you have a launchpad account? | 10:26 |
| FisherMack | I didn't think it was a bug. I just figured it my was card | 10:26 |
| FisherMack | No | 10:26 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Get yourself an account. Just so you have one, and can log in. This will enable you to report bugs, and comment on them https://launchpad.net/ | 10:28 |
| zequence | FisherMack: Then, in a terminal, do: ubuntu-bug alsa-base | 10:28 |
| FisherMack | OK done | 10:32 |
| zequence | I figure alsa-base is the correct package, but the actual drivers are probably a part of the kernel | 10:33 |
| FisherMack | Ok the bug data is being processed | 10:35 |
