[00:54] <Megaladon> hey, I'm running ubuntu studio 18.10 and my volume keys aren't working
[00:55] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: known problem. Let me see if I can find the bug report.
[00:55] <Megaladon> thanks
[00:56] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-volumed/+bug/1291855
[00:56] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1291855 in xfce4-volumed (Ubuntu) "After pulseaudio restart, volume keys no longer work" [Undecided,Confirmed]
[00:56] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: Read my comment #7, that should be your workaround.
[00:56] <Eickmeyer> Permanent workaround coming to 19.10.
[00:56] <Eickmeyer> Unfortunately, development has stopped on xfce4-volumed.
[00:57] <Megaladon> is it this one? killall xfce4-volumed
[00:57] <Megaladon> xfce4-volumed
[00:57] <Eickmeyer> Yes. That needs to be entered in a terminal, one line at a time, or with && between them.
[00:59] <Megaladon> bash: syntax error near unexpected token '&&'
[00:59] <Megaladon> ?
[00:59] <Eickmeyer> No, if you want to put them all in one line, you'd but && in the middle.
[00:59] <Eickmeyer> "killall xfce4-volumed && xfce4-volumed"
[01:00] <Megaladon> ah
[01:00] <Megaladon> works now
[01:00] <Megaladon> thank you!!
[01:00] <Eickmeyer> Good. Unfortunately, you'll have to do that any time you switch between Jack and PulseAudio. In other words, when PulseAudio restarts.
[01:01] <Megaladon> What's the difference between Jack and PulseAudio?
[01:01] <Megaladon> I frequently use Ardour is that goig to mess with anything I just did?
[01:08] <Megaladon> nvmd, I just looked it up.
[01:08] <Megaladon> thanks for the volume fix
[01:16] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: You're welcome. I finally pulled the trigger and put it in the release notes.
[01:16] <Eickmeyer> It has only become a problem recently, which is why it went undetected.
[01:22] <Megaladon> I'm way stoked on ubuntu studio and recording with ardour
[01:22] <Megaladon> what would cause PulseAudio to restart
[01:22] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: It's fun. I used to do a lot more recording, but I also have used it for live effects processing.
[01:23] <Megaladon> cool
[01:23] <Megaladon> like adjusting the output sound of a pedal while playing live?
[01:38] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: I'm an audio engineer, so we're talking vocal effects or taking an instrument and adding a stereo-pseudo-surround effect to it using phase and delay manipulation.
[01:41] <Megaladon> sounds like an advanced form of reverb
[01:46] <Eickmeyer> Not exactly. The guitarist would send all of that to the amp, then I'd have the amp mic'd to the mixer. From there I'd send the audio from the mixer to my computer via USB where it would split the signal into two,
[01:46] <Eickmeyer> change the phase on one, then add a slight (10-20ms) delay on that channel with a slight EQ to make it sound like the amp was a stero amp.
[01:46] <Eickmeyer> Megaladon: ^
[01:47] <Eickmeyer> EQ boost around 3k of about 2-3dB.
[01:47] <Eickmeyer> Then I'd send that back to the mixer in the form of a stereo return to a spare channel.
[01:48] <Eickmeyer> The effects I'd do would be controlled via a Behringer X-Touch Mini MIDI controller.
[01:53] <Megaladon> gotchya
[01:58] <Megaladon> thanks again for the help, I'll catchya later
[03:32] <studio-user268> Can I run Ubuntu Studio on a PC with 2 GB ram and 2,2 Ghz single core processor? Also, will it work to run the latest version alongside win 7?
[18:35] <Thr0r> I'm looking into Ubuntu studio to create a lib of all my old music CD's and playlists and all but when copying from CD I only get Track 1, Track 2,.. Not the song title.... Is It possible to retrieve that from the CD? I'm using Parole 1.0.2 now.
[18:50] <M_aD> install asunder to rip CD's
[18:53] <Thr0r> ok - thanks - I will check that
[18:57] <M_aD> works great, been using it for a few years now myself on various distro'
[19:09] <Thr0r> M_aD:  I installed Asunder but it will not start. Nothing happens when I click on it..
[19:10] <M_aD> weird
[19:10] <Thr0r> yes..
[19:10] <M_aD> i'm no expert on when stuff goes wrong or doesn't work
[19:10] <M_aD> doe you have Jack running? If so stop it and try again
[19:10] <M_aD> doe/do
[19:11] <Thr0r> Ok, It seems to happen from time to time on Linux...
[19:11] <Thr0r> ok - I will try
[19:13] <M_aD> never had that issue so it doesn't happen from time to time, at least not at my end
[19:15] <M_aD> Thr0r: by the way, which version of ubuntu studio are you using?
[19:18] <Thr0r> The latest 19.04
[19:27] <M_aD> Had Ubuntu Studio 19.04 running myself without any issues using asunder, same on xubuntu 19.04 that i use on this machine at the moment
[19:32] <Thr0r> I have tried to stop Jack, did not help, I have tried to uncheck "Auto Start Jack at session start" and reboot - did not help. Now I also tried to install Asunder on my xubuntu laptop with no Jack installed - And it still will not start. Nothing happens..
[19:32] <M_aD> hard to believe since it works at my end
[19:33] <M_aD> is it a VM or bare metal install
[19:35] <M_aD> if it's installed on your computer what are the specs
[19:35] <Thr0r> Studio install i dualboot with win7 using Grub. xubuntu is "bare metal" - Only xubuntu install on that
[19:38] <Thr0r> What is the command in Linux to get the specs of my computer?
[19:39] <M_aD> inxi -Fxz
[19:40] <M_aD> use pastebin to share the info
[19:40] <M_aD> https://paste.ubuntu.com/
[19:50] <Thr0r> ok -I used pastebin now
[19:50] <Thr0r> that is info of my xubuntu laptop
[19:51] <M_aD> where's the link?
[19:51] <Thr0r> oh....   https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/BdfJzRjzzF/
[19:52] <M_aD> that's not the complete output of inxi -Fxz
[19:52] <M_aD> how much ram does it have?
[19:53] <Thr0r> But when it does not work on any of my laptops it must be something wrong with the insall
[19:53] <Thr0r> 2GB
[19:54] <M_aD> is that xubuntu or ubuntu studio...
[19:55] <Thr0r> that is info of my xubuntu laptop.  The Ubuntu studio has 6GB RAM
[19:56] <M_aD> oh, i thought xubuntu also was 19.04 but it's 18.04.2
[19:57] <M_aD> maybe something is wonky hardwarewise, hard drive issues maybe that's causing stuff to get corrupted and act weird
[19:58] <Thr0r> Yes - I don't think the is any xubuntu 19.04?
[19:59] <M_aD> what do you mean?
[19:59] <M_aD> that there's no xubuntu 19.04? sorry not getting the last phrase
[20:02] <M_aD> anyway, no matter what, i can't help you further with the issues you have
[20:02] <Thr0r> When I was downloading I just saw studio in 19.04 and xubuntu in 18.04 - but I don't know. Doesn't mater really. Asund does not work and I am getting nowhere. I would like to have some way of copying my CD's with Album and Song titles. But I will have to look somewhere for that
[20:03] <M_aD> there is a xubuntu 19.04..... as with Ubuntu releases all flavours are released at the same time
[20:04] <M_aD> try restarting and see if asunder starts then
[20:04] <M_aD> if not check if your hard drives are still ok
[20:05] <Thr0r> ok. I have tried restart. But anyway - thanks for the help.
[20:05] <M_aD> you're welcome
[21:51] <Thr0r> M_aD: Still there? I must apologize to you for the Asunder issue - not starting etc. I went into Software shop and search for Asunder and installed the first one there. The description matched what I wanted but as you know it did not start. Turns out I installed Asunder-casept (don't know what that is but has the same description as Asunder CD-ripper). So now I installed Asunder CD-ripper and it starts and works like a charm, seems
[21:51] <Thr0r>  really, really good! Sorry for taking up your time but the Software shop descriptions tricked me...
[22:42] <M_aD> Thr0r: no problem :)
