[04:51] holstein - well, I got the audio working again! funny thing is - all I had to do was reboot and the input/output interface options changed. I selected the new ones and bob's your uncle. So quickly saved the settings - remembering what you said earlier though - that the interface number might change next time I reboot - so I'll just have to remember to check that every time. [04:51] Now I need to work on getting the midi to work as well. :-O [12:16] low-latency kernel vs win 8.1 on same mashine, who wins the lowest latency? [12:18] on my hardware it's ubuntu studio [12:19] 8.1 is very laggy on my stuff === Drone` is now known as Biliskner [21:21] holstein - midi working now too. :-) Thanks again for walking me through everything. Thankfully I didn't have to go to all the extremes you suggested and figured it out early.
