[11:05] <redlion> hi
[15:10] <redlion> can any1 support for the use of a soundcard in ubuntustudio ?
[15:10] <cfhowlett> !sound
[15:10] <redlion> I just installed fresh ubuntu studio 14.04
[15:11] <redlion> cfhowlett: my sound card is multi channel / usb
[15:11] <cfhowlett> redlion, I cant' diagnose - see the wiki link
[15:15] <redlion> cfhowlett: not sure it will help at this stage
[15:17] <redlion> I ll have a look though
[15:39] <holstein> redlion: have you used JACK before?
[15:40] <holstein> i suggest *not* learning jack, and troubleshooting a random USB audio device that promises support for other operating systems than the one you are using
[15:40] <holstein> i would learn to use JACK with the internal audio device *then* move on configuring the USB device, which should be class compliant, and work "out of the box" (and likely does)
[15:43] <redlion> holstein
[15:43] <redlion> I already tried jack
[15:43] <redlion> I had an issue with gladish on my previous ubuntu classical environment
[15:44] <redlion> therefore I switched to ubuntu studio
[15:44] <holstein> redlion: ubuntustudio *is* ubuntu
[15:44] <redlion> yep but fresh installed
[15:44] <holstein> comparing, for example, ubuntustudio 14.04 and "classical" ubuntu 14.04, they are the same
[15:44] <holstein> same versions of all the software from the same repositories
[15:46] <redlion> holstein: gladish was not working with my ubuntu 14.04 install
[15:46] <redlion> I am not blaming ubuntu for this
[15:46] <redlion> I needed to start from a fresh conf therefore did I switch to ubuntustudio
[15:47] <holstein> sure.. and im not addressing "blame" at all.. just that, ubuntustuduio 14.04's gladish will be the same as main ubuntu's gladish
[15:47] <holstein> you are welcome to fresh install as you please, im just saying, that wont get you a different, or "better" version of gladish, and using the usb audio device you have will be the same
[15:47] <holstein> same setup and config in jack
[15:48] <redlion> holstein I am aware of this
[15:48] <holstein> what i usually do, and suggest is, simplify the config by using only one audio device
[15:48] <holstein> disable or remove the internal audio device
[15:48] <redlion> that is not the issue
[15:48] <redlion> I can see my card in pulseaudio
[15:49] <holstein> sure.. pulse wont use the multi channels, though
[15:49] <holstein> you'll want jack to route like that
[15:49] <redlion> I am just not sure about the multichannels part
[15:49] <holstein> redlion: sure.. jack, is the tool you want for that
[15:49] <redlion> ok then let s say
[15:49] <redlion> actuallw my card is hw2
[15:49] <holstein> if you are not used to configuring jack, use the internal audio device with jack til you learn it
[15:50] <holstein> redlion: those labels, "hw2" for example, can change between reboots
[15:50] <redlion> then I need to set capture device on hw2,0
[15:50] <holstein> redlion: i do this, and suggest that you do this
[15:50] <redlion> yes ?
[15:50] <holstein> redlion: remove the usb device, and reboot with *out* that device plugged in
[15:50] <holstein> with *only* the internal audio device
[15:50] <redlion> ok
[15:50] <holstein> setup and configure JACK and test/use it, and learn to configure it
[15:51] <redlion> ok
[15:51] <holstein> *after* you are comfortable with that, disable or remove the internal audio device (disable in the bios, for example) and configure the internal usb device in jack
[15:51] <redlion> I understand your logic
[15:51] <holstein> this is *not* a fix, or the only way  to do it. you can ask in #opensourcemusicians about labeling those devices in alsa more permanently if you prefer
[15:52] <holstein> !proaudio
[15:52] <holstein> ^ the configuration of jack still looks like that
[15:56] <redlion> k holstein I will try play a bit more with qjackctl
