[00:48] <OvenWerks> huh, if thge only reason people want "unity" or gnome is for the left side panel...
[00:52] <Eickmeyer> Seems like a silly reason.
[00:52] <Eickmeyer> Gnome doesn't have a left side panel by default.
[00:52] <OvenWerks> +1
[00:53] <OvenWerks> But it does show what sticks out to many users
[01:02] <Eickmeyer> Yep.
[01:11] <OvenWerks> It's like having a sports car and you passengers only comment is that it has a moon roof...
[01:14] <Eickmeyer> XD
[01:15] <OvenWerks> Though calling gnome a sports car is maybe a bit of a streach...
[01:20] <Eickmeyer> Gnome is the shiny rebuilt hot-rod that's rusting away on the inside.
[01:21] <OvenWerks> oh, like a new car...
[01:52] <Eickmeyer> Haha
[14:53] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: with regard to: https://discourse.ardour.org/t/usb-c-adaptor-changes-audio-sample-rate/101446
[14:54] <OvenWerks> I am wondering if I should even put a sample rate in the zita-ajbridge lines.
[15:00] <OvenWerks> I wonder what zita does if the device it opens does not support the requested rate.
[15:03] <OvenWerks>  I know jack just requests and goes regardless, but I don't know if zita uses the requested SR to calculate it's SRC. 
[15:03] <OvenWerks> I wish I had such a device to play with I guess.
[15:06] <Eickmeyer> Yes. There are still devices that requrie the host machine to set the sample rate, such as my audio interface. That said, a Behinger X-32 Mixer will change the sample rate to whatever it is set to, regardless of what is set by zita-a2jbridge.
[15:07] <Eickmeyer> So, it just completely depends on what is being used. Unfortunately, there's no way to detect that.
[15:07] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: ^
[15:08] <OvenWerks> well there is a way to detect it... but it is not trivial and only something you want to do once.
[15:08] <OvenWerks> zita will by default try for 48k
[15:10] <OvenWerks> I just wonder what happens if it gets a 44k1 only device. Does it error out? or just take longer to sync up?
[15:11] <OvenWerks> For that matter, if the jack master is running at 44k1 and a USB device is plugged in at 48k (only) and zita is therefor set to 44k1, will zita care?
[15:12] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: so, can jack set the SR on your x32?
[15:12] <OvenWerks> or does it stay where set?
[15:14] <Eickmeyer> Jack cannot set the SR on the X32. Rather, the X32 sets the SR on Jack.
[15:17] <marcuswlima> hi everyone !!!
[15:18] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: great! you can test then...
[15:18] <Eickmeyer> Sadly, I cannot. I don't have access to an X32 anymore. :(
[15:19] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: if you use the internal audio set to 44k1 and plug in the x32 while it is set to 48k....
[15:19] <OvenWerks> Ah :(
[15:20] <OvenWerks> Hmm, where is my "disney" mic.
[15:22] <Eickmeyer> lol
[15:22] <marcuswlima> I would like to collaborate on this community as a tester. What are the first steps?
[15:25] <OvenWerks> marcuswlima: testing would be for the 19.10 ISO image.
[15:28] <OvenWerks> http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/404/builds/197576/testcases
[15:28] <OvenWerks> you would need a launchpad account so you can login to record results
[15:30] <OvenWerks> marcuswlima: at this time we are particularily interested in testing the packages found in: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports
[15:30] <OvenWerks> marcuswlima: Eickmeyer (above) is our lead BTW.
[15:33] <OvenWerks> marcuswlima: you do not need to install the backports PPA to test if you are using the daily image, as these are packages that are already included in 19.10. I only reffer you there because it is a convenient list of what is new.
[15:34] <OvenWerks> you would not be able to test -installer unless you install another flavour first so maybe leave that one out.
[15:46] <OvenWerks> -installer has been tested for installing Studio over kubuntu and ubuntu (I think)
[15:49] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: Disney mic shows: Rates: 8000, 11025, 22050, 44100, 48000
[15:49] <OvenWerks> so that won't help
[15:56] <Eickmeyer> Lame.
[15:57] <OvenWerks> I guess I need a cheap usb headphone adapter
[15:57] <OvenWerks> or guitar adapter
[16:54] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: headphone adapter... price $0.01, shipping $3.98  ;)
 lol
[17:03] <OvenWerks> what is amazing is that these headphone jacks offer 5.1 channel arangement...
[17:07] <OvenWerks> however, if I pay a little bit more ($0.68) then shipping is only $0,99
[17:08] <OvenWerks> lets buy a few and see if any of them are crappy enough for testing
[17:09] <OvenWerks> Wow! I can up grade my shipping and get it sooner for only $31 per item  :P
 lolololollololol
 LOL!
 Sorry, I'm all over the place today.
