[16:15] hi [16:16] i have a problem to install my sound card [16:16] ##http://alsa.opensrc.org/Tascam_US-122 [16:17] anybody can help me [16:20] emma: sure [16:20] emma: you wont like it, though [16:21] i *had* one of those.. i personally decided to give it to a friend who uses OSX [16:21] ??? [16:21] its a pain.. i found that it worked with a custom jack start command.. and, it wasnt worth the hassle to me [16:22] ok no issu ? you cofirm [16:22] you dont "install" it like that.. i mean, if tascam wants, they can look at all of linux/ubuntu/ubuntustudio and give you an installer, but, i find, if hardware doesnt automatically work in linux, it can be problematic or impossible to easily support it [16:22] what the best card usb compatible [16:22] ? [16:23] emma: 'best' is a matter of opinion and use case, and ideally they would all be "class compliant" [16:23] and, i would try the tascam again in 14.04.. last i tried it was 13.04 [16:23] waouh,, i just know copy and paste lol [16:23] i would disable or remove any other devices if possible.. and plug the tascam and run "aplay -l " and "arecord -l" [16:24] !paste [16:24] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imgur.com/ !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [16:25] its not reconized with Qjack CTL [16:25] emma: i would personally not introduce JACK into the equation yet [16:25] emma: have you , in fact, ran the commands above? [16:26] ok [16:26] emma: open a terminal and run "aplay -l" and "arecord -l" [16:26] emma: then, you can pastebin the output if you would like me to look at it [16:26] emma: *then* after this, we discuss JACK.. [16:26] jack is nice with my microphone usb [16:26] alsa recognizes and supports it first.. then, JACK works [16:26] emma: ? [16:26] emma: i am not implying anything about the quality of JACK [16:27] carte 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], périphérique 0: ALC269VC Analog [ALC269VC Analog] [16:27] Sous-périphériques: 1/1 [16:27] Sous-périphérique #0: subdevice #0 [16:27] emma: i am simply starting a troubleshooting path, and JACK is not important to this [16:27] emma: you need to read..

[16:29] i have ok [16:29] sorry [16:30] emma: you paste, and share the link here.. [16:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8115502/ [16:36] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8115536/ [16:37] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8115547/ [16:37] emma: so, you can see that alsa is not seeing the device [16:38] yes nothing about tascam us122 or else [16:38] correct.. so, the device and the device manufacturer doesnt support linux/alsa "out of the box" [16:39] so ? no solution ? [16:39] emma: id say, i wasted about 20+ hours on that device.. and i personally dont consider it worth the effort.. and it had compromises when i did get it working [16:39] emma: as i said, if tascam wants to provide a solution, they can [16:39] emma: nothing is broken or wrong here.. they didnt promise you linux support.. [16:40] is this the us122l ? [16:40] or just the 122? [16:40] no its the old us122 [16:40] you can try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122 [16:40] http://alsa.opensrc.org/Tascam_US-122 [16:41] ok and for have a good card ??? [16:41] emma: personally, i would make a seperate test partition install dedicated to trying to provide support for this device [16:41] ty if you have try [16:41] i would start with http://alsa.opensrc.org/Tascam_US-122#Tascam_US-122_on_Debian_and_Ubuntu [16:42] the first link echec on step 3 [16:42] emma: echec? [16:44] http://paste.ubuntu.com/8115582/ [16:44] 404 [16:44] not found [16:44] oups [16:45] im tried of this card with linux [16:45] i go by another one day [16:45] emma: sure. thats what i did [16:45] emma: i found it wasnt worth the hassle [16:45] yep [16:45] have you a cheap and good card ? [16:46] depends on your needs.. [16:46] focusrite,,, akai ... is there a list of sound card 100% comp [16:48] emma: to ask the operating system what works 100% is backwards [16:48] backwarks [16:48] emma: linux/ubuntu/ubuntustudio is all open and *any* company is able to and welcome to create whatever they like that is supported on the platform [16:49] emma: if you want "100% compatible", ask the vendor for linux support [16:49] lol [16:49] otherwise, most usb devices these days are class compliant, and should just work [16:49] i personally just try them, and save the reciepts and make sure i can return them if they do not support inux [16:49] linux* [16:50] scarlet focusrite ?? [16:50] emma: sure.. ask them if they support linux [16:51] lol [16:51] shusss [16:51] emma: or, just try them.. we are not focusrite.. so, we cannot provide support for the device [16:51] and TY [16:51] not sure what is so funny about that.. [16:51] its not the focusrite project here.. we are not doing anything to prevent focusrite from supporting linux [16:51] its linux [16:51] its normal [16:51] they are welcome to be class compliant, or, provide linux software, or drivers [16:51] no prob [16:52] emma: its not normal to expect the operating system to support the hardware [16:52] emma: focusrite provides windows and OSX support.. and they are welcome to provide linux support [16:52] ty holstein your are cool [16:52] otherwise, the devices *should* be class compliant.. but, there are no guarantees that can be given here [16:52] good day ,,,, im limited with english sorry [16:52] i would ask for first hand devices in #opensourcemsucians [16:54] TY x 1000 [16:54] by
