sirriffsalothpI've forgotten the name of this awesome organ-program/plugin... it was brownish and it was 3-D so you could turn the organ around for access the different knobs and whatnot, anyone remember what it was called?07:28
sirriffsalothpsetBfree!! That was the name of it! :D:D:D07:42

trebmuhand / or you can redirect him to #linuxmao which is a general channel about linux audio **in French**22:29
Eickmeyer[m]trebmuh: Did not know.22:35
trebmuhnote that MAO isn't a acreditation of a communist chinese leader, but stand for "Musique Assitée par Ordinateur" in French (= Computer Aided Music)22:37
Eickmeyer[m]trebmuh: HAHA! Didn't think that was the case. :)22:42
Eickmeyer[m]trebmuh: Of course, Ubuntu Studio isn't just audio.22:42
trebmuhnope, but hey, that'd be ~70% of the average use of it, isn't?22:43
Eickmeyer[m]If I had those statistics...22:48
trebmuhmost of the questions here and/or on the ML are about music22:56
Eickmeyer[m]Fair.23:01
DankWizardAnyone have time to answer a couple ALSA questions, or point me in the direction to help myself understand how ALSA, Jack, and my 32 channel interface come together for multitrack recording?23:21
DankWizardSpecifically I am trying to figure out the appropriate ALSA hw number to configure ecasound23:25
Eickmeyer!ubuntustudio-controls | DankWizard23:28
ubottuDankWizard: Ubuntu Studio Controls is the application through which audio is configured in Ubuntu Studio. It configures Jack, sets the CPU governor, and ensures the user has realtime audio permissions. For more info, see !jack and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioControls23:28
DankWizard!jack23:30
ubottuThe JACK Audio Connection Kit is a sound server meant for professional applications, allowing different audio protocols and applications to interconnect in nearly unlimited ways. This is the core of Ubuntu Studio's audio workflow. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK for more information on JACK in general.23:30
EickmeyerDankWizard: Just use Ubuntu Studio Controls for configuring the audio. It'll just work.23:31
DankWizardIt certainly does for Ardour, which is peachy keen, but I am attempting to record with ecasound, which requires a bit more knowledge than I have obtained thus far! Ubuntu Studio Controls does contain some good options!23:32
DankWizardThe goal is to figure out my inputs to make something like this fly in ecasound: -a:1 -i alsahw,1,0 -o test3.wav23:33
EickmeyerDankWizard: If it works with Jack, then it should just work. I'm unfamiliar with it myself.23:33
DankWizardThe manual says it works with jack, so I suppose I will learn jack as best I can. Thanks for the guidance!23:34
EickmeyerYou bet. If it works with Jack, then you shouldn't have to point it directly to the alsa hardware.23:34
EickmeyerDankWizard: http://www.eca.cx/ecasound/23:34
EickmeyerAll of your documentation is there for ecasound.23:35
trebmuhaplay -l or aplay -L (can't remember at the top of my head) to get the alsa recognized device interface(s)23:37
EickmeyerDankWizard: ^23:37
DankWizardI can see that my XUSB is card 1 with "aplay -l" which allows me to point ecasound to the right interface, next I need to figure out how to distinguish between the channels of said device23:39
trebmuhsorry, not aplay but arecord23:39

DankWizardApologies, that's what I see with better formatting23:42
trebmuhyep23:43
trebmuhthat's to be expected23:43
trebmuhwith arecord -l , you can get the number for tweaking the "alsahw,1,0" part of you ecasound command I guess23:46
DankWizardThanks, I believe that to be correct23:48
