[10:09] !ask | stephen_, [10:09] stephen_,: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [10:10] ok thanks [10:11] Well i installed ubuntu studio a couple of days ago and have had no issue using ardour 3 and this morning i started it up and the jack isnt connecting, so i look into the connections box in jack and there are no audio connections, only midi connection with alsa [10:11] im losing whats left of my hair [10:13] jack has always put me off using linux [10:14] stephen_, I've never needed it for my modest recording needs and don't have enough knowledge or jack nor ardour to advise. #opensourcemusicians would likely know [10:15] its a night mare trust me === Pici` is now known as Pici [20:30] How do I find my PC's system info (device manager) [20:30] eric__: anything in particular? [20:31] Trying to find out my CPU type on this laptop...that I have installed Ubuntu on [20:31] eric__: in the terminal: lscpu [20:32] !info hardinfo [20:32] hardinfo (source: hardinfo): Displays system information. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-1.2ubuntu4 (trusty), package size 210 kB, installed size 486 kB [20:33] sudo apt-get install hardinfo [20:33] Or lshw even. inxi -fxxx too. So many ways. [20:34] or, whatever package manager you prefer.. "System Profiler" or something like that in the menu [20:34] lshw is not bad. Haven't used the others. [20:34] You get more info than you would from Windows device manager, in either case [20:35] (well, depends, perhaps) [20:36] Ah, hardinfo is a gui tool [20:36] Probably what you want, if you're used to that [20:36] might look more familiar [20:36] thanks... trying it now. Was trying to install BitWig Studio, but it errors out stating "Wrong Architecture AMD64". I have a 64bit processor, but my version of Ubuntu is 32 bit [20:37] eric__: usually, since there are only 2 options, if one fails, you can just try the other [20:38] The CPU will not decide if you can install or not [20:39] If you have a 32 bit OS, then you can only install 32 bit apps, even if the processor is 64 bit [20:40] zequence: There's even lshw-gtk, if you really want. [20:40] oh [20:42] Thanks.... it's my OS that fudging me up... I wonder if there is a 64 bit version of Ubuntu Studio? [20:42] Sure [20:42] amd64 is the 64 bit version [20:43] But, if the error from installing the package is saying you have the wrong arch, which is 64 bit, I would bet you are trying to install a 32 bit application onto a 64 bit OS. Maybe I'm reading it wrong? [20:45] Nope, I just found out BitWig Studio is 64bit, but they misled you in the description [20:45] https://ubuntustudio.org/download/ [20:45] The 64 bit ISO links are to the left of the 32 bit ones [20:48] I will download them now... I only used the 32 bit, because the laptops am using are old, and have less than 3 gigs of RAM [20:52] hello newbie here with a problem.Using jack with yoshimi and maudio keystation 49e [20:55] in my conn window in jack under audio i have pulse jack sink,system and yosh in the outputs and under inputs i have pulse audio jack source and system [20:56] in the midi window under inputs have yosh,but nothing for output [20:56] in the alsa tab i have midi through and my maudio 49.Where am i going wrong [20:57] in the midi tab midi through is in both output and input the same with the maudio [20:58] im really new so if there is some type of guide i would be happy to check that out.also im new to the command line to [21:10] andrew: Two kinds of midi. Jack and ALSA [21:10] andrew: Use a2jmidid to create a bridge in between [21:10] in the terminal: a2jmidid [21:10] you could add that as a pre jack script in qjackctl [21:11] how do i do that [21:11] add the script? [21:12] Try running the tool in the terminal first, and see how the connections work [21:12] The script can be simple, like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8162863/ [21:12] Save that in a file, and make it executable [21:13] You might need a script for killing it once you quit jack, so you don't get multiple a2jmidids (if that is even possible) [21:13] I usually just run it manually from the terminal, as I don't need it that often [21:14] ok when i typed that into the terminal in the midi tab it says a2j both in and out [21:14] expand it, and you should see your keyboard [21:15] when i expand it it say midi through 14 capture and play back [21:19] jack setup has me confused if i chose the keybord it says to restart jack but when i do i get dbus error [21:20] cant start jack the only way i can get jack to work is to use the default for my interface. [21:20] sorry im all confused [21:24] is there any documentation that will explain what all of jack is i see a2jmidid,jackd,jackdmp,I dont even know what this stuff is.And i dont want to take time from you guys with what seems to be very basic stuff === marco is now known as Guest73308 [23:12] hey all, I have an upgrade question ;) I'm running 12.04 LTS...and in the upgrade manager I see 14.04.1 LTS is available and I can upgrade there...will that work ok? This computer spends most of it's time offline, and I bring portable internet to it. [23:12] so doing a full format/wipe is difficult, if I can just do an upgrade, and still be in good shape, that'd be awesome.
