| OvenWerks | mistaken ideas... | 02:27 |
|---|---|---|
| Jessedavid4 | Hey is there a way to reset Studio controls? I tried to change some settings and seemed to lost audio. | 02:47 |
| OvenWerks | I think that feedback bit 0 needs to be set up to 5.12 (strip buttons) 6 will be separate (bit 13) | 02:51 |
| OvenWerks | Jessedavid4: which settings did you change? | 02:52 |
| OvenWerks | Jessedavid4: and lost audio from which application? | 02:52 |
| Jessedavid4 | Well, lost audio from everything. | 02:53 |
| OvenWerks | Jessedavid4: start by choosing Stop Jack | 02:54 |
| Jessedavid4 | I tried to change the Sample rate from 48 to 192. Honestly I thought my mobo has 192 support, but could be wrong. Anyways, I changed it back to 48 and have no audio anymore. | 02:54 |
| OvenWerks | why would anyone want 192? Pet bats? | 02:54 |
| Jessedavid4 | Lol. Wanted to see if I noticed a difference in my music. | 02:55 |
| Jessedavid4 | Like spotify's "high quality" streaming. | 02:55 |
| OvenWerks | anything higher than 48K will tend to introduce distortion in the sound | 02:55 |
| OvenWerks | and noise | 02:55 |
| OvenWerks | anyway try stop jack in -controls and see if you have audio again | 02:56 |
| Jessedavid4 | Yeah, but if the support is there. Ideally it should be better, no? | 02:56 |
| OvenWerks | no | 02:56 |
| OvenWerks | its called advertizing hype | 02:56 |
| Jessedavid4 | Ooh? So where does 192 matter then? And it seems to have not fixed it. | 02:57 |
| OvenWerks | A good video on the subject: https://www.xiph.org/video/vid2.shtml | 02:57 |
| Jessedavid4 | Oh wait, lol. It works on that link. | 02:58 |
| OvenWerks | he uses real analog scopes and signals. | 02:58 |
| OvenWerks | so desktop audio now works | 02:58 |
| Jessedavid4 | Huh. That was weird. But it works again. | 02:58 |
| Jessedavid4 | Yeah I thought I tried stop Jack to and then start/restart jack. | 02:59 |
| Jessedavid4 | You know, come to think of it. I tried to use Spotify each time I tried to stop or reset. And I had to completely close it down for it to fix it. | 03:00 |
| Jessedavid4 | This video actually looks super good. (picture wise) | 03:01 |
| OvenWerks | Monty is a codec designer for both audio and video | 03:02 |
| Jessedavid4 | Honestly, if he wanted to. He could put youtube out of business lol | 03:03 |
| Jessedavid4 | This is 720p on my 1080p monitor. I mean this is really really good. | 03:03 |
| paul_k_0123 | I am using 16.04.5 and want to upgrade to the latest LTS (18.10.x). It looks like I have package problems that are hard to trace. Do logs exist? | 03:25 |
| paul_k_0123 | I have had aptd crash on me numerous times for reasons that seem related to this, but, again, information is not in the usual places (like /var/log) | 03:26 |
| paul_k_0123 | Output from an upgrading effort is at: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/M3GwSdzjXW/ | 04:12 |
| JEV_ | Hi, i've been using this link: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro | 05:58 |
| JEV_ | I followed all the steps and guitarix is able to read my guitar input | 05:59 |
| JEV_ | but the only thing left is my laptop doesn't produce any sound | 06:00 |
| JEV_ | i'm currently using usb guitar cable as an input | 06:00 |
| Eickmeyer | JEV_: 16.04, 18.04, or 18.10? | 06:07 |
| JEV_ | 18.10 | 06:14 |
| Eickmeyer | Then ignore that Wiki article. | 06:14 |
| Eickmeyer | Use Ubuntu Studio Controls to start Jack, then any USB audio device should be automatically detected. | 06:14 |
| Eickmeyer | It's exponentially easier. | 06:14 |
| Eickmeyer | We have a lot of work to do on documentation, and that entire article can easily be replaced with a new article about Ubuntu Studio Controls. | 06:15 |
| JEV_ | ah i see | 06:15 |
| JEV_ | let me try it first | 06:16 |
| Eickmeyer | Use patchage to connect your guitar to guitarix, and then the output from guitarix to your laptop speakers. | 06:17 |
| JEV_ | in Ubuntu Studio Controls, should i change anything? | 06:19 |
| Eickmeyer | Only if you want to change the master audio device or some other stuff to lower the latency. Buffers and periods per buffer can be explained best here: https://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/list_of_jack_frame_period_settings_ideal_for_usb_interface | 06:20 |
| Eickmeyer | You're going to want 3 periods. | 06:21 |
| Eickmeyer | For Guitarix, read the very bottom paragraph, it's important. | 06:21 |
| JEV_ | and about the patchage... | 06:24 |
| Eickmeyer | It's an app installed by default. It's buggy, so we're working on packaging a replacement. | 06:25 |
| Eickmeyer | Development on it has ceased. | 06:25 |
| JEV_ | are guitarix output and my laptop speakers named PulseAudio JACK Source and system respectively? | 06:26 |
| Eickmeyer | No. Your laptop speakers are most likely system, and your USB-1/4" input likely has its own label. | 06:26 |
| Eickmeyer | PulseAudio Jack Source sends audio internally to PulseAudio, for non-JACK aware apps. | 06:27 |
| JEV_ | in patchage, there re only gx_head_amp, gx_head_fx, system (Both capture and playback) and 2 Midi Trough | 06:40 |
| JEV_ | I re-open everything and there are no more PulseAudio Jack Source nd Sink | 06:42 |
| JEV_ | I'm new to linux... everything seems really hard | 06:43 |
| Eickmeyer | Don't worry about PulseAudio, you don't need it for guitarix. | 06:43 |
| Eickmeyer | gx_* is guitarix. system capture is your input, system playback is your output. | 06:43 |
| JEV_ | yes, system playback_1 for the system playback | 06:44 |
| Eickmeyer | I have never used Guitarix myself, mut I can only imagine you'd connect your input to your fx and fx to your amp and then amp to system, but that's just based on my live audio engineering background. | 06:44 |
| JEV_ | in my patchage from system -> amp -> fx -> system | 06:47 |
| JEV_ | what are those 2 Midi Through blocks use for? | 06:49 |
| Eickmeyer | Those would be for MIDI controllers or keyboards or the like. | 06:49 |
| Eickmeyer | Safe to ignore. | 06:49 |
| JEV_ | because 2 of them aren't connected to everything | 06:49 |
| JEV_ | oh i see | 06:49 |
| Eickmeyer | You mentioned that your guitar is connected via USB? | 06:49 |
| JEV_ | yes, usb cable... but the block is not exist since i open guitarix | 06:50 |
| Eickmeyer | Unplug your USB cable and plug it back in. It should show up in Patchage. | 06:51 |
| Eickmeyer | Of course, that's assuming you started Jack using Ubuntu Studio Controls and not elsewhere. | 06:51 |
| Eickmeyer | BTW, Guitarix needs to be started -after- starting Jack. | 06:52 |
| Jessedavid4 | I read some documentation saying that using an AUX cable tends to work better than most anything for Guitarix. | 06:56 |
| Jessedavid4 | Recommended to use a 3.5mm over a USB. Though you should still see the same results irregardless. | 06:57 |
| JEV_ | I restart everything, unplug the usb | 06:58 |
| JEV_ | how can I show you my patchage screenshot? | 06:58 |
| JEV_ | there are another stange blocks appear | 06:58 |
| Eickmeyer | Well, you could always screencap it and send it to imgur, but I honestly need to be heading to bed, it's getting late here. | 06:59 |
| JEV_ | okay, thank you. I'll figure it myself | 07:00 |
| Eickmeyer | Best thing I can tell you is to not be afraid to experiment. | 07:00 |
| Eickmeyer | I hope I've at least pointed you in the right direction. | 07:00 |
| JEV_ | I think i just need a little more step, thanks for guiding me | 07:00 |
| Eickmeyer | You're welcome. | 07:00 |
| JEV_ | if you're not sleeping yet... it's working!! | 07:03 |
| dave_ | Hi - quick question I hope. I installed 14.04 and have upgraded to 16.04. I want themes but can't find out how to dertermine what my environment is - Gnome or Unity? Which environment if 16.04 please? | 19:01 |
| dave_ | *is 16.04? | 19:01 |
| dave_ | That's 32 bit btw | 19:03 |
| OvenWerks | If you have ubuntustudio it is xfce | 19:05 |
| OvenWerks | So neither gnome or unity | 19:06 |
| dave_ | That works - thanks so much! | 19:07 |
| OvenWerks | no problem | 19:07 |
