| studio-user687 | testing - hello | 02:15 |
|---|---|---|
| studio-user687 | Is this an active board? | 02:16 |
| OvenWerks | not very. | 02:16 |
| studio-user687 | Ok, thank you. | 02:16 |
| studio-user687 | I'm a long-time ableton user with a little bit of linux experience - decided I'm comitting to the switch | 02:16 |
| studio-user687 | Just a bit overwhelmed and unsure where to begin, lol | 02:16 |
| OvenWerks | It depends what you wish to do | 02:17 |
| studio-user687 | Produce using a workflow similar to ableton, but with open source tools | 02:17 |
| studio-user687 | Have been playing around with ardour but still am not sure how to get sound out of it, lol | 02:17 |
| OvenWerks | I don't know Ableton wel at all | 02:17 |
| OvenWerks | Ardour is more protools like. | 02:18 |
| OvenWerks | where are you having trouble? | 02:18 |
| studio-user687 | It's not the DAW part I'm worried about, it's more on the routing and setup process with linux tools | 02:18 |
| studio-user687 | I'm running an external DAC into a studio speaker system, but don't know how to configure it | 02:19 |
| OvenWerks | In Linux audio things you are working with for Ardour will either be ALSA or Jackd. For many people ALSA works just fine | 02:19 |
| studio-user687 | Do I use "Run ALSA" ? | 02:19 |
| OvenWerks | external meaning USB? | 02:20 |
| studio-user687 | yes | 02:20 |
| OvenWerks | no ALSA is just there and Ardour can connect to it | 02:20 |
| studio-user687 | I've also got a midi keyboard and drum pad on | 02:20 |
| studio-user687 | hmm... ok, so I should probably start by studying ALSA and Jackd? | 02:20 |
| OvenWerks | For most things you should not need jack | 02:21 |
| OvenWerks | WHen you start Ardour for the first time you would have gotten an audio dialog | 02:21 |
| studio-user687 | the configuration box? | 02:22 |
| studio-user687 | I got that, but didn't recognize nearly the whole thing haha | 02:22 |
| studio-user687 | I appreciate your help, I think I owe it to myself to do more research before taking up anymore of your time haha | 02:22 |
| OvenWerks | getting audio going is not really intuitive | 02:23 |
| studio-user687 | Maybe I'm overcomplicating it | 02:23 |
| studio-user687 | thanks again, chat soon maybe :) | 02:23 |
| OvenWerks | The most trouble I have is with people who want to use a USB mic and listen on their computer speakers | 02:23 |
| OvenWerks | oops gone | 02:24 |
| Eickmeyer | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 02:24 |
| jtm777 | join #ubuntu | 10:54 |
| jtm777 | whoops | 10:54 |
| studio-user879 | hi | 13:45 |
