| Zurn | Hello, I was on here a few hours ago with an issue about JACK not responding to my QJackCtl settings.... we fixed it, but now there's a much bigger issue.... | 01:23 |
| Zurn | Now sound comes from my internal computer speakers but not from the USB audio device we configured to work with JACK (which it temporarily did) | 01:25 |
| Zurn | PulseAudio is the only way to make sound come out, which only comes out of the speakers - and get this, it won't work unless the USB device (which it doesn't recognize) is plugged in! | 01:26 |
| Zurn | When I launch qjackctl I get the error message: D BUS: JACK SERVER could not be started Sorry | 01:28 |
| Zurn | here's the output I get when I enter a particular command (which I did not save nor can I remember, but I'm sure is very familiar to anyone on here): https://pastebin.com/Bt4vcdpL | 01:30 |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: I believe you were helping Zurn? ^ | 01:31 |
| Zurn | Ya it was OvenWerks who kindly helped... I'm sure it's not too tricky a fix, though I'm still very new to all this | 01:36 |
| sufy | hi | 02:47 |
| Eickmeyer | Zurn: One of the first mistakes most people make is that they don't configure the audio device in QJackCtl. That said, what version of Ubuntu Studio are you using? (in the terminal: lsb_release -a) | 02:49 |
| Zurn | 16.04.5 | 02:51 |
| Zurn | QJackCtl was configured nicely for a short time, now it's comepletely inoperable unfortunately | 02:54 |
| Zurn | Update: PulseAudio seems to be working fine again | 02:55 |
| Eickmeyer | Oh, gotcha. 18.10 and above has an improvement to Ubuntu Studio Controls that makes what you're trying to do dead simple. I'm considering backporting it into a PPA for 18.04. I would for 16.04 as well, but the EOL on that is in April. | 02:56 |
| sufy | does anyone know if i can route my audio into my computer by default sound card and back out to a real guitar pedal then back in through my usb interface using several chords? | 02:56 |
| sufy | cords* | 02:56 |
| Eickmeyer | sufy: It's theoretically possible. | 02:56 |
| Eickmeyer | Depends on your interface. | 02:57 |
| sufy | im talking about using the regular sound card aswell as another usb interface3 | 02:58 |
| sufy | using alsa_in | 02:58 |
| sufy | i just want to put a compressor before my pedals but i dont own a compressor pedal | 02:58 |
| Eickmeyer | sufy: The only way you're going to be able to do that is by using Jack with Ubuntu Studio Controls in Ubuntu Studio 18.10 or higher. | 02:59 |
| sufy | Eickmeyer: i have that how can i achieve this | 03:00 |
| sufy | is there a program i can use to arrange it | 03:00 |
| Eickmeyer | Ubuntu Studio Controls automatically configures Jack to recognize any USB audio interfaces in addition to your regular sound card. The interface is very self-explanatory. After that, open Patchage and do your routing there. | 03:01 |
| Zurn | Okay, random question: how risky or inadvisable is it to upgrade to 18.10 without backing up my harddrive | 03:02 |
| sufy | ok im only getting one input and one output | 03:02 |
| Eickmeyer | Zurn: I'd upgrade to 18.04 first, then 18.10. | 03:02 |
| sufy | i need 2 inputs and 2 outputs | 03:02 |
| Eickmeyer | sufy: Did you run Ubuntu Studio Controls, configure it, and then click on "Start Jack"? | 03:02 |
| Zurn | Eickmeyer: Great, I'll consider that if I can't fix my qjackctl problem | 03:03 |
| sufy | well i installed kxstudio repositories | 03:03 |
| sufy | could that have affected it | 03:03 |
| Eickmeyer | sufy: We do not support Ubuntu Studio with kxstudio repositories. That does affect our default configuration. | 03:03 |
| sufy | Eickmeyer: ok should i reinstall can i do so without deleting data | 03:03 |
| Eickmeyer | sufy: That's up to you and whether or not your home directory is in a separate partition. | 03:04 |
| Eickmeyer | If it's not, then it's going to be an uphill battle. | 03:05 |
| sufy | its not in a seperate partition, so your saying with ubutnu 18.10 default it will let me hook jack to all the audio devices? | 03:05 |
| Eickmeyer | That's correct, so long as you're letting Ubuntu Studio Controls start Jack. | 03:05 |
| sufy | ok is ubuntu studio controls a program? | 03:05 |
| sufy | or just the default config | 03:06 |
| Eickmeyer | It's a program pre-installed with Ubuntu Studio. It does all of the nitty-gritty audio configuration for you. | 03:06 |
| sufy | how do i try run it now? | 03:06 |
| Eickmeyer | You can, but not if you installed Cadence. | 03:07 |
| sufy | if i reinstall what is the name of it | 03:07 |
| sufy | ubuntu-studio-controls? | 03:07 |
| Eickmeyer | Yes. | 03:07 |
| Eickmeyer | However, if you've ever run Cadence, I cannot guarantee you it will work. | 03:08 |
| Zurn | Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me make an external hard drive writeable... it's currently read only. I've tried a bunch of things on forums etc. but none seem to work! | 18:00 |
| Zurn | here's the info on the HD: https://pastebin.com/P56WMdHd | 18:02 |
| Eickmeyer | Zurn: That's not exactly an Ubuntu Studio-specific thing. We're very few in number here, so if you find yourself waiting for a long time, head to #ubuntu | 18:37 |
| Eickmeyer | But, basically, it comes down to the file system. It needs to be something writable by Linux, such as FAT, EXT4, or NTFS so long as you have NTFS-3G installed (as it is by default). | 18:38 |
| Zurn | Eickmeyer: Good point, I'll head to #ubuntu | 18:39 |
