Len-nbqas shrinks nicer too.00:00
zequencexfce, as in the alsa mixer gui?00:00
zequenceAnd, what don't we need? 00:00
Len-nblet me look downstairs at a more complex card00:00
Len-nbyes the xfce mixer, called "audio mixer"00:01
Len-nbThat is the only one we have right now00:01
zequencealsa mixers don't have pulse controls00:02
zequenceSome levels are share by alsa and pulse mixers, but that doesn't mean the alsa mixer has pulse controls00:02
zequenceor, qasmixer only has two controls for pulse, output and input00:04
zequenceI don't think qasmixer is adding anything that we didn't already have, does it?00:05
len-1304Niether one of them makes sense on my old ensoniq card. :P00:16
len-1304I have to enable the playback on line in before I can set it to record?00:16
len-1304zequence, One thing I will say about "audio mixer" is that I can't even get all my playback controls on the ice on one screen. QASmixer gets playback, capture and all the switches on less than 2/3 screen.00:21
len-1304zequence, QAS allows much finer adjustment and actually show db. using the up down keys with QAS gives 1 db steps, Audio mixer does 4db steps, but I can only see that from QAS. alsamixer in a terminal is about the same as QAS00:49
len-1304QAS can be set to a level with text input, "Audio mixer" doesn't understand the need for such fine adjustments, alsamixer doesn't allow text input either.00:51
smartboyhw_zequence: Are we allowed to blog about Ubuntu Studio future targets? ;P08:18
smartboyhw_For S and T.08:21
zequencesmartboyhw: Sure, and I'm going to do some posts on that on our website and social sites too. On my personal blog, I might just write more personal stuff (like someting about my personal projects), since we already have a common "propaganda" apparatus for Ubuntu Studio11:24
zequencesmartboyhw: You can prepare posts for Ubuntu Studio too, if you like. But, if you don't mind, I then would like to have a look at them first11:25
smartboyhwzequence: Heh, if you are going to post things on the website I'm not going to:P11:28
zequencesmartboyhw: I don't mind if you do it. I'd actually like it if more people would write stuff, so we can post things more often11:36
smartboyhwzequence: OK. But you reminded me to actually write my own goals for 13.10 in my blog:P11:38
smartboyhwzequence: BTW what do you think of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/CommunicationsTeam/WOWLubuntu/StartUbuntu ?11:39
DarkEraposts on the main/Home page or the planet?11:39
zequenceWe can link Ubuntu Studio posts to the planet. It's not worked out yet (just needs a correct address for the planet Ubuntu feed, I think)11:43
zequencesmartboyhw: Very smart goal11:43
smartboyhwzequence: Try 11:44
smartboyhwWe have a category11:44
DarkErajust reading the log because i missed something 11:44
smartboyhwJust that it's not properly feeded11:45
zequenceOne of the things I think we should be doing is prepare Debian/Ubuntu so that companies like Pro Tools would feel it's a good platform to support11:45
smartboyhwDarkEra: Some:P11:45
zequenceRight now, the audio system is messy, and we are in a position where we can do something about that, at least from top down. 11:45
smartboyhwzequence: I think you need to purchase an actual whiteboard to brainstorm ideas (like what Scott did for team structure in his blog) ;P11:46
zequenceI'm not really brainstorming right now. These are firm goals, but I just haven't put them in writing yet11:46
zequenceWe should contact some companies and see if they have any interest in Ubuntu/Linux11:47
zequenceAnd if yes, what they think the problems are, etc11:47
smartboyhwzequence: Great11:47
zequenceDoesn't mean we need to serve them, just that it's good to get an idea about what the situation is11:47
smartboyhwzequence: I tried to search the Ubuntu Studio trademark's registration, no luck :P11:48
zequenceYeah, google is dry of it. I still haven't emailed anyone about it..11:49
DarkErasad news by the way, in the Netherlands 3 shops that sell PC's/laptops with Linux on them are closing their doors because it's harder to get computers without Windows installed from the vendors11:49
zequenceNeed to go out for a while. bbl11:49
DarkErame to in a bit11:49
DarkEratoo*11:49
smartboyhw_zequence: Are we seriously doing a vUDS session? It's next week man.13:06
smartboyhw_Welcome back DarkEra14:25
DarkEraheya smartboyhw_ thanks14:25
DarkErawelcome back yourself :D14:27
smartboyhwDarkEra: Meh, I touched "Disconnect" accidentally…14:28
DarkErasmartboyhw, that can happen. accidentally close xchat sometimes14:30
DarkEramyself14:30
DarkEraalways fun i a meeting for example: hey where did DarkEra go?14:32
