| wonko | Yay Ultranerdery! | 00:49 |

| wonko | I wasn't coming up with a good solution on getting audio out of the windows VM. I had a PCIe USB controller that I'm doing PCIe passthough with. This would steal the Komplete Audio 6 from the host and give it to the VM for while I was doing stuff on the VM. This worked, but was annoying. Then I had an idea. I still had these sounblaster USB audio things which just happened to have spdif out. So that attached to the VM and the spdif out on that routed | 00:49 |
| wonko | into the spdif in on the KA6 and I'm golden. Now I can leave the VM running all the time. Yay! | 00:49 |
| wonko | bah, xruns are way up this way. | 01:39 |
| wonko | That sucks | 01:39 |
| wonko | oh wait, I'm prioritizing the wrong irq now | 01:40 |
| wonko | oops. :) | 01:40 |
| wonko | I had to move the KA6 off the pcie card for this to work | 01:40 |
| wonko | oh, we're back to fighting with the keyboard. bah. | 01:42 |
| wonko | I wish this motherboard had more built in usb controllers | 01:42 |
| wonko | I see I trip to microcenter in my future for another PCIe USB card | 02:54 |
| Lootre | Hi Eickmeyer ! Do you have any news regarding my problem with Carla ? | 12:23 |
| niksnaks | testing 19.10: turn on jack & a2jmidid up and running, midi device showing up in patchage & ardour. trying to send MIDI MMC & Mclk & MTC from ardour over usb midi adapter as per usual. used to work in 19.04 but now i get "ALSA: seq_midi: MIDI output buffer overrun" in syslog | 14:19 |
| niksnaks | nothing recent showed up in google | 14:20 |
| niksnaks | oh, usb hub was the problem :( nvm | 14:23 |
| Eickmeyer | sirriffsalothp: Please do not recommend KXStudio in this channel. | 14:33 |
| Eickmeyer | !kxstudio | sirriffsalothp | 14:34 |
| ubottu | sirriffsalothp: KXStudio is an Ubuntu-based operating system and a repository for Debian-based operating systems for audio production. Development is on hiatus until late-2019 as of this writing. It is not supported by Ubuntu or Ubuntu Studio, and using its repo is discouraged. Support in #kxstudio. | 14:34 |
| wonko | OK | 19:12 |
| wonko | Added a USB card, so now the KA6 is on its own again | 19:13 |
| wonko | now to figure out what the hell IRQ that's on. :) | 19:13 |
| wonko | OvenWerks: I got really excited for a minute. They had a USB2 card. That plugged into the PCI slot I don't have. :( | 19:13 |
| wonko | I'm gonna say 46 | 19:14 |
| OvenWerks | Lifes like that... there are PCI to PCIe cards... | 19:15 |
| wonko | this case is already a mess | 19:15 |
| wonko | :) | 19:15 |
| wonko | ok, 46 it is | 19:15 |
| * OvenWerks loves messy cases | 19:15 | |
| wonko | Then you want pics of mine. :) | 19:16 |
| OvenWerks | I am just installing liquorix to see how well it runs | 19:16 |
| OvenWerks | just in case my software load is not messy enough | 19:16 |
| OvenWerks | But I have a perfect test case, I have a session I was playing with on the current lowlatency kernel with my D66 set to 16/2... it sound like vinyl | 19:18 |
| wonko | This picture doesn't really show all the mess but it's hard to take the side off to get a better one. | 19:21 |
| wonko | https://imgur.com/a/KMWXX0l | 19:21 |
| wonko | OvenWerks: This looks correct, yes? RTIRQ_NAME_LIST="46-xhci 38-xhci snd usb i8042" | 19:27 |
| wonko | Because that doesn't seem to have set 46 | 19:30 |
| OvenWerks | Sure. I think.Assuming 46 and 38 have no mouse on them :) | 19:30 |
| OvenWerks | do you still have udev-rtirq installed? | 19:31 |
| wonko | Hmmm | 19:31 |
| wonko | after starting up the VM my 46-xhci in /etc/init.d/rtirq status output changed to: 45777 FF 50 - 90 0.0 S irq/46-vfio-msi | 19:32 |
| wonko | so the old card got a new IRQ? | 19:32 |
| wonko | and so the new card has the old IRQ? | 19:32 |
| wonko | but I'm still getting crackles and xruns even at 128/3 | 19:33 |
| wonko | running Maschine in the VM with the audio routed to linux via the soundblaster -> SPDIF -> KA6 route | 19:33 |
| wonko | I'd like to say it's better, but I'm not entirely sure it is or not | 19:36 |
| wonko | but I'm also not sure udev-rtirq is doing the right irq anymore. :) | 19:36 |
| wonko | that's SOOOOO confusing about the interrupts changing, but I guess it kinda makes sense. Kinda. :) | 19:39 |
| OvenWerks | Sounds like fun but I really have no experience with VMs or wine | 19:43 |
| wonko | shouldn't matter | 19:43 |
| OvenWerks | Yes with PCIe cards the irq can move from boot to boot | 19:44 |
| wonko | that's just a thing that's going on | 19:44 |
| wonko | I added a new card, which makes sense the IRQs would change | 19:44 |
| wonko | but the funny thing is the new card got the old card's IRQ. :) | 19:44 |
| OvenWerks | The virtual irqs are assigned at boot | 19:44 |
| OvenWerks | not really, it is just first in line | 19:45 |
| wonko | yeah, new card is earlier in the pci list (assuming that's at all relevant) | 19:45 |
| OvenWerks | The OS goes through them in the order it gets to them. It has to be based on something physical | 19:45 |
| wonko | So the audio issue is acceptable for now. I think ideally I'm going to build a cheap PC to run the NI stuff and just route the audio in like I am now. | 19:46 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer: well liquorix is maybe somewhat better than lowlatency. I need to do more testing though. I still have to be very carefull about mouse movement etc. | 19:47 |
| Eickmeyer | Ok, good to know. | 19:47 |
| Eickmeyer | That's bit us in the tail with 18.04's lowlatency kernel. | 19:47 |
| OvenWerks | ya, this is 18.04 LL vs liq | 19:48 |
| OvenWerks | LL is 4.15 and liq is 5.2 | 19:49 |
| wonko | OvenWerks: ok, if I stop Maschine and do audio just in linux the xruns go away so it's just the two usb cards fighting for interrupts | 19:50 |
| OvenWerks | wonko: it may make a differenc to switch the two priorities | 19:51 |
| OvenWerks | I know I have to have my ice11712 ahead of my AudioPCI | 19:51 |
| OvenWerks | even if the AudioPCI is not being used | 19:52 |
| OvenWerks | (I use it for MIDI only) | 19:52 |
| wonko | so the linux card is at rtprio 75 and the windows audio card is at rtprio 50 | 19:53 |
| wonko | which to me seems like linux audio shouldn't be the problem in this case? | 19:53 |
| OvenWerks | I'm not really sure, I would think that the windows card should be higher than 50 so that it is higher than the mouse | 19:54 |
| OvenWerks | but other than that | 19:55 |
| wonko | that one doesn't seem to be having issues from what I can tell. Or maybe it is. Who the hell knows. | 19:55 |
| wonko | I wonder how cheaply I can build a PC for the NI stuff | 19:57 |
| wonko | or I'll just wait till I build a new desktop and the windows VM can stay on this box. | 19:58 |
| DirtyEar | Hi. I have 2 hard disks in my pc. I have all my files in the second disk and my ubuntustudio in the first one, but my files in the 2 disk has a padlock in the icon and I cannot open some files. in order to open I have to copy the file I want to open to my first disk and then it opens. Is there any way to remove that padlock? | 21:01 |
| DirtyEar | I have seen something with "cd /media/slimbook" but does not exist | 21:08 |
| DirtyEar | Hi. I am looking for a way to open my slave hard disk with permissions to write and read. I have my projects in my slave hard disk but when I open my sessions in Ardour it says that I cannot save changes and things like that with other type of files. Is there any advice you may share with me? | 23:17 |
| Eickmeyer | DirtyEar: Saw that earlier, didn't have time to help. Still not available, and I don't think you'll get much help here. Just know this isn't the only resource, for that I'd check #ubuntu or #xubuntu, because we ARE Ubuntu and we share a desktop environment with Xubuntu. Both are more than happy to help. | 23:20 |
| DirtyEar | Eickmeyer: Thanks. I will try it. | 23:21 |
