[01:31] <lazyPower> any jack audio wizards in here? i've got a working audio routing setup - but the sound i'm getting on the other end is really distorted and sounds ... just... "wrong" is the only way i can describe it
[02:47] <holstein> lazyPower: you can take a picture of your connections
[02:47] <holstein> lazyPower: sound to me like, you have wet and dry linked in somewhere, or something introducing phase
[02:47] <holstein> i would press play, and listen, and try and mess with the route.. try and isolate what is happening
[02:48] <holstein> try *just* a known good audio file, in audacious routed in jack, so you know if its your jack config, or your routing/one of the applications
[02:48] <lazyPower> its the routing
[02:49] <lazyPower> of that much I know
[02:49] <holstein> if something sounds "wrong", that you *know* should sound right, and its only going from that player (audacious) to jack, then, its in the routing
[02:49] <holstein> i mean, its in the jack config, and not the routing ^
[02:49] <lazyPower> i was trying to get funky and i think the issue with the sampling from a pulseaudio-sink connection
[02:49] <lazyPower> to double the trouble - i'm attempting to run zita-a2j to capture a usb soundcard and add it as an output source - no joy whatsoever.
[02:50] <lazyPower> it only shows up with capture devices, no output devices
[02:50] <lazyPower> there are days that make me wonder why i try to be smarter than the tools i'm given.
[02:50] <lazyPower> brb
[02:55] <lazyPower> holstein: thanks for the info though
[02:55] <holstein> sure.. just try and get down through al the layers, and see what you are doing that is causing the "noise"
[02:56] <holstein> i mean, if you want to "capture" from a usb device, it should be class compliant.. but, i would want it to be the only device
[02:56] <holstein> also, try disabling the pulse to jack dbus, and removing it from the equation, at least to test
[02:56] <holstein> its in the "misc" tab in qjackctl under setup.. the "dbus" tickbox
[03:12] <lazyPower> holstein: i still see a pulse audio jack sink after unchecking the dbus tickbox
[03:13] <holstein> lazyPower: did you restart jack?
[03:13] <lazyPower> sure did
[03:13] <holstein> lazyPower: you'll have to stop jack and restart it
[03:13] <holstein> well, i wouldnt overthink that.. just move on to isolating something else
[03:18] <lazyPower> holstein: http://i.imgur.com/7qOkaKx.png
[03:19] <holstein> lazyPower: you have "audio playback" 1 2 3 4 in "bridge" hooked to the card
[03:19] <holstein> why?
[03:19] <holstein> try just 1 and 2
[03:20] <lazyPower> well, "bridge" is a "room" i created in gladish
[03:20] <lazyPower> that apparently does nothing - i had zero audio
[03:20] <lazyPower> works when i link mixx directly into hardware playback
[03:20] <lazyPower> under playback_1 and _2
[03:20] <holstein> sure.. so, get rid of it, if its not in use
[03:20] <holstein> this is the kind of thing i suggest thinning out
[03:21] <holstein> if you are not using them, thin that out, and see what is causing the issue
[03:21] <lazyPower> these all sound fine at the moment
[03:21] <holstein> *great*! enjoy! ..feel free and try #opensourcemusicians
[08:40] <zgorbyo> hi all
[08:43] <zgorbyo> i have just finished installing ubuntu studio keeping my previous ubuntu installation and partitioning, but when i finished and restarted no way to access boot manager and select OS
[08:44] <zgorbyo> please anyone can help me?
[08:56] <zgorbyo> no clue'
[08:58] <vlt> zgorbyo: Try holding down the shift key while booting.
[08:59] <zgorbyo> ok, any way to set grub appear as default?
[09:01] <zgorbyo> ok i try it now
[09:01] <zgorbyo> thanks
[09:01] <zgorbyo> bye
[09:09] <zgorbyo> im back, holding shift hasnt worked, ubuntu booted automatically
[09:44] <zequence> zgorbyo: Check out the file /etc/default/grub
[09:56] <zgorbyo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/9454290/
[09:56] <zgorbyo> zequence: thanks for response
[10:14] <zequence> zgorbyo: Try adding a few seconds to "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0"
[10:14] <zequence> make it say something like "GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=5"
[10:15] <zequence> to edit, you can try: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
[10:16] <zequence> zgorbyo: This might be helpful too https://launchpad.net/~danielrichter2007/+archive/ubuntu/grub-customizer
[10:16] <zequence> A simple application. No extra libraries in the PPA, so you only install the application itself
[10:17] <zgorbyo> hey here im
[10:18] <zgorbyo> no need for grub settings editing in this last solution?
[13:21] <zgorbyo> hi all
[13:21] <zgorbyo> can anybody help me to install and configure compiz and make it work properly in ubuntu studio?
[13:22] <zgorbyo> i had several tries but no success
[13:25] <zequence> zgorbyo: I've seen some people try that, and have problems. Don't think any of the devs do that. You might find more people who know about that at #xubuntu.
[13:25] <cfhowlett> zgorbyo, or #xfce
[13:25] <zgorbyo> i got into it in the past with suggestions from this channel
[13:26] <zgorbyo> it worked perfectly but i forgot
[13:26] <zgorbyo> maybe fond a good topic
[13:26] <Unit193> compiz --replace is all I can tell you.
[13:28] <zgorbyo> yes i know, but i lost winows decorations and couldn't take them back from compiz plugins
[13:29] <zgorbyo> i am reading that maybe it needs metacity in order to work properly
[13:30] <cfhowlett> zgorbyo, again:  interface issue, not ubuntustudio issue.   ask #xfce or #xubuntu
[13:31] <zgorbyo> ok t y
[13:31] <Unit193> Though #xubuntu doesn't support compiz.
[13:31] <zgorbyo> i alreadyy got it working perfectly in the past
[20:26] <delt> Hello
[20:27] <delt> is there any way to get jack to use more than one sound card?
[20:27] <delt> and route audio signal from one to the other?
[20:29] <delt> for example, i'd like skype to record from the microphone on my second sound card, and from pianoteq (using jack on first sound card) at the same time.
[20:30] <delt> Right now, i can choose one or the other, but is there a way to have jack mix both into a single signal and send it to jack-source?
[20:32] <delt> i would also like to route the line-in on the second sound card to be able to hear it in jack's main output, without using a physical cable to patch the signal through.
[20:32] <delt> Is there a way to do that?
[21:27] <lazyPower> delt: you can - you'll need to use pulse audio jack
[21:27] <lazyPower> oir use a line in input
[21:28] <lazyPower> delt: i just figured this out lastnight as a matter of fact, this diagram using gladish may help you, the pulse-jack-sink is how i'm piping skype/hangouts audio to my broadcast
[21:28] <lazyPower> delt: http://i.imgur.com/SqbevzX.png
[21:29] <delt> lazyPower: thanks very much for the info :D
[21:30] <delt> lazyPower: right now i have the whole pulseaudio system as a jack client using its "jack-sink" and "jack-source" plugins
[21:30] <lazyPower> delt: np, it took me a bit of jiggering to figure it out
[21:30] <lazyPower> delt: as the screenshot illustrates - that seems to be the trick. the dbus interface gives you enough flexibility to do it, but its an all or nothing with pulse sound source
[21:30] <lazyPower> so dont think you can isolate specific apps, you'll want to make sure you're not running system sounds or anything while you're doing the broadcast or you'll get additional noise
[21:31] <delt> yeah, that's what i suspected
[21:31] <lazyPower> delt: however - multiple soundcards can be troublesome as clock drift happens and you get audio artifacting - so ymmv there, i hd teh same goal in mind
[21:31] <lazyPower> i found that zeit-a2j and a2j apps are less than savvy in my case
[21:32] <delt> i use a2j for mapping my midi devices
[21:32] <delt> so that jack-midi-only programs can use them
[21:39] <delt> lazy: anyway, thanks very much for the info
[21:44] <lazyPower> np
[21:44] <lazyPower> best of luck to ya
