[15:23] <sakrecoer> Jlye: re: wine, yes might be a 32 bit issue.. i haven't got much experience with wine tbh.
[15:39] <sakrecoer> Jlye: so no, i haven't installed FL studio on ubuntustudio, unfortunately i can't help you..
[15:40] <Jlye> thats cool
[15:41] <sakrecoer> :)
[15:43] <sakrecoer> i can't wait to have something finished with hydrogene and ardour... stuff is lit, but without any example, there is nothing to make a point about lol
[15:51] <Jlye> True. I want to use LMMS more but when creativity calls, I don't want to always have to learn to figure out what I'm trying to do.
[19:21] <Mithos> please help, I can't get my usb mic working in ardour 4 with ubuntu studio 16.04. midi works with the internal soundcard. but I want to use my good usb mic for singing. what can I do?
[19:24] <Mithos> I mean my internal soundcard plays sounds when I play my external keyboard with yoshimi connected, but I can't find any option in Ardour or in Jack to use my usb Mic for vocals, can someone help?
[19:25] <Jlye> Have you tried in Audacity or QTractor ?
[19:25] <Jlye> Maybe check to ensure there's a driver for it ?
[19:29] <Mithos> thx ...the mic shows um in the tab parameter in the Qjack where defauld is set when I change it to the mic nothing changes in Ardour
[19:30] <Mithos> still capture only works with the internal mic port
[19:31] <Mithos> can I see somewhere in ardour which devices are connected to the computer?
[19:36] <Mithos> ah there in qJackctl preferences I found a tab advanced where I could change input device to the usb mic, I'll restart jack and Ardour now and see if something has changed
[19:39] <Mithos> that's strange I changed the input device in QJaclctl and still the mic from the soundcard gets captured and not my usb mic
[19:39] <Jlye> I don't know anything about ardour. Sakrecoer may be able to help. Have you tried an IRC channel for the app ?
[19:42] <Mithos> no I'll try to find one..where can I find Sakrecoer?
[19:51] <OvenWerks> Mithos: two things
[19:52] <`{^v^}> does it show up in qjackctl?
[19:52] <`{^v^}> (the mic)
[19:52] <OvenWerks> Mithos: if you use your mic as the default input you will not be able to hear the output from your MB audio.
[19:53] <Mithos> thx ...the mic shows um in the tab parameter in the Qjack where defauld is set when I change it to the mic nothing changes in Ardour
[19:53] <Mithos> there in qJackctl preferences I found a tab advanced where I could change input device to the usb mic, I'll restart jack and Ardour now and see if something has changed
[19:53] <OvenWerks> Mithos: it may be that jackd is already running and so you can not use qjackctl to restart it till that jackd is stopped (killed)
[19:54] <OvenWerks> Mithos: try in a terminal: killall -9 jackd jackdbus
[19:55] <Mithos> thx I try this
[19:55] <Mithos> ok what should I do next?
[19:56] <OvenWerks> Mithos: it is not possible to use two different audio devices at the same time without resampling one of them. So start jackd with one of those devices and then use zita-a2j to add the other.
[19:57] <OvenWerks> zita-a2j resamples an audio port to match whatever jackd is running at
[19:59] <OvenWerks> Mithos: it is probably easiest to run qjackctl with the default audio device and add your mic with zita-a2j.
[19:59] <OvenWerks> Mithos: so if you start jack that way the connections dialog in qjackctl will show two system ins and two system playback lines.
[20:00] <OvenWerks> this will allow you to hear with the speakers you have plugged into your computer.
[20:01] <Mithos> ah ok...what is this zita-a2j? I added some a2j thing for my midi keyboard to work, is this the same?
[20:02] <OvenWerks> then in a terminal:zita-a2j -d <devicename>
[20:02] <OvenWerks> no that was a2jmidid
[20:02] <OvenWerks> devicename can be found from arecord -l
[20:02] <OvenWerks> the -l is a lower case L
[20:04] <OvenWerks> sorry for all the terminal work, but using two devices is not really a normal thing yet.

[20:06] <OvenWerks> ok so zita-a2j -d Mic
[20:06] <OvenWerks> I think... let me check
[20:07] <OvenWerks> Mithos: nope, I have to do zita-a2j -d hw:Mic
[20:08] <OvenWerks> Mithos: once that is running the qjackctl connections window should show an input called zita-a2j. That will be your mic.
[20:10]  * OvenWerks was hoping to have a GUI applet that helped do this stuff, but has been too busy
[20:10] <Mithos> I got it to work somehow!! I chose in the advance tab
[20:11] <Mithos> input device the usb mic
[20:11] <OvenWerks> right
[20:11] <Mithos> output device the internal card
[20:11] <OvenWerks> if you do it that way, you may find you have clicks in the sound
[20:11] <Mithos> now in ardour I hear my voice when I speak, but with the speakers connected to the iternal soundcard...isn't that strange?
[20:12] <Mithos> but yohimi doesn't give sound now
[20:13] <OvenWerks> is it connected in jack?
[20:14] <Mithos> no it is no longer there in jack
[20:15] <OvenWerks> it may need to be restarted.
[20:15] <OvenWerks> I don't know yoshimi well, there may be a reconnect button in it too.
[20:16]  * OvenWerks is not a kb player so all his stuff uses analog inputs
[20:16] <Mithos> but suddenly there is a pulse audio jack sink left and source right that wasn't there before
[20:16] <Mithos> ok i restart yoshi
[20:17] <OvenWerks> that is the difference between jackd being started by a jack application and qjackctl starting jackdbus.
[20:17] <OvenWerks> when you sarted yoshimi with jack not running it would have started jack on its own which is not what you want.
[20:19] <Mithos> now it is there but connection make no sound
[20:20] <OvenWerks> is there a line in the qjackctl connections window that goes from the output of yoshimi to the system playback port?
[20:22] <Mithos> yes there is, but nothing to hear...been 5 hours on these problems first the midi thing now the mic...I'm tired...thank you so much for your help but its just to complicated for me now :(
[20:23] <OvenWerks> is there a midi controller connected to it's midi in?
[20:23] <OvenWerks> (did you restart a2jmidid?)
[20:27] <Mithos> yes midi worked fine before I got the mic to work but the thing with a2jmidid took me lots of time two. How come you need some temp proceses running via terminal to get your midi keyboard running?  I mean this is a musicians distro, right? not a progammers thing
[20:31] <`{^v^}> midi has always been a hassle (i have better luck with Roland devices)
[20:33] <Mithos> I used studio 14.04 with ardour and it worked fine, while using no midi keyboard and the bad internal mic input from soundcard. today I insalled 16.04 with ardour 4 and
[20:33] <Mithos> tryed my new devices but only frustration :(
[20:34] <sakura_> never change a running system
[20:36] <Mithos> You got it wrong I wanted a better mic and play some things myself on keyboard for my recordings, so this is not me changing system first but adding passibilities
[20:37] <Mithos> sorry for my bad english i am german :)
[20:38] <Mithos> are there scripts for autostart that handle these things?

[20:40] <Mithos> now there is it all dead ...what the f....
[20:40] <Mithos> Is there a linux studio distro that works better?
[20:47] <Mithos> now I got it all restarted again including a2jmidid. All connections are made but no sound and no reaction in ardour when I play the keyboard
[20:48] <Mithos> when I play the virtual keyboard it works, but not the midi keyboard
