=== capturixeur2 is now known as trebmuh [18:39] just installed ubuntu studio 17.10 on 2009 macbook pro. have a usb audio box and midi controller. can't get a sound to work in anything yet. newb. any tips or useful sites? [18:40] It may help if you told us what all you already tried. [18:41] haha. ardour. [18:41] i had a slightly older version running live from a usb yesterday and it was all fine. [18:41] I mean in the way of troubleshooting. [18:41] nothing seems to work with 17.10 so far [18:42] didnt have to do anything special yesterday. so i guess i was wondering if there are some huge known problems with this release? [18:42] No, there isn't. [19:13] is there anything out there that is more beginner than demystifying jack? the fact that i cant plug in and play right now is fuckin ridiculous. [19:21] Ins0l3nt: try running: cd /tmp && wget http://jackaudio.org/downloads/adevices.sh && bash ./adevices.sh [19:22] take the output and paste it to a paste site let us know the url... [21:36] Hey guys, I do a bit of youtube training videos, photography, some gaming and php development. I know there are distro's specifically for each ( desktop, server, studio, game ) but I really don't know which would be best suited. [21:37] Is it difficult to install the other "preconfigured" systems that the different variants have? [22:24] any feedback? [22:35] Bear_: It's quite fuzzy what you describe, but at least it would seem a server install wouldn't be fitting for you. [22:38] krytarik: probably because I'm fuzzy lol... I'm a photographer, youtube tutorial creater, php coder using LAMP so it's kinda confusing which version to start with.. does that make sense? [22:39] the thing thats confusing me is I realize the different flavors, like studio vs desktop have the apps/configurations already optimized.. I'm completely unsure how I would apply the studio optimizations if I installed desktop [22:39] does that help? [22:41] The default Ubuntu Studio install *has* a desktop - does *that* help? :P [22:41] heheh yeah, of course it does, last time I touched *nix ubuntu was in version 7 [22:42] If you are thinking vanilla Ubuntu vs Ubuntu Studio, I'd go for the latter. [22:43] @krytarik thats basically what I was wondering... I've heard to use ubuntu, mint, elementary so I'm pretty confused. [22:51] hey all. had some luck so far getting my guitar into ardour but im having a constant problem stating that my audio backend is stopping [22:51] havent gotten my midi controller to do anything yet either [22:51] tips? [23:01] im added to the audio group, or whatever. pasuspender just seems to piss qjackctl off. i just wanna make some noise here.
