| AppAraat[m] | hi, I'm trying to get audio on my external USB interface working using ubuntustudio-controls, but so far I can't get it to work. Regular qjackctl is off (GUI of it is still open though for monitoring connections) | 20:36 |
|---|---|---|
| AppAraat[m] | also, I remember someone posting a link to the general Ubuntu Studio system config (that can get applied on a vanilla Ubuntu) but I think I lost the link. It was on Launchpad I believe. Can anyone please provide it again? | 20:37 |
| Eickmeyer | !ubuntustudio-controls | AppAraat[m] | 20:37 |
| ubottu | AppAraat[m]: 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/UbuntuStudioControls | 20:37 |
| Eickmeyer | !ubuntustudio-installer | AppAraat[m] | 20:37 |
| ubottu | AppAraat[m]: Ubuntu Studio Installer is an app that can be used to add Ubuntu Studio's benefits to an existing Ubuntu (or official flavor) installation, or add additional packages. For more info, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/UbuntuStudioInstaller | 20:37 |
| OvenWerks | ubuntustudio-installer will add studio on top of another flavlour | 20:37 |
| OvenWerks | AppAraat[m]: does your SUB inteface show up in the: USB device that should be mnaster" dropdown? | 20:38 |
| AppAraat[m] | thx, but I believe that config contained stuff to put in /etc/ among other places | 20:39 |
| AppAraat[m] | oh damnit, brb sorry | 20:39 |
| Eickmeyer | Uhhh... Controls does that for you. | 20:39 |
| OvenWerks | ubuntustudio-controls will do that if the rt warning comes up. | 20:39 |
| AppAraat[m] | back. Gah, I'm afraid the USB audio interface situation has to wait. | 21:11 |
| AppAraat[m] | I'm aware of the UbuntuStudio Installer, but I remember here seeing a place where bare /etc/ config files were hosted. Someone told me that on a very basic level, you could apply those config files on a vanilla Ubuntu in order to get the necessary audio config needed. | 21:11 |
| AppAraat[m] | I was just interested in checking out those config files to learn more | 21:11 |
| OvenWerks | AppAraat[m]: they are in more than one package. | 21:12 |
| AppAraat[m] | I'm referring to system-wide configs though, are those also inside multiple packages? | 21:13 |
| OvenWerks | first the user needs to be in the audio group and there is a file /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf | 21:14 |
| OvenWerks | these first steps are done by ubuntustudio-controls | 21:14 |
| OvenWerks | I think the rest are a part of ubuntustudio-performance-tweaks | 21:15 |
| OvenWerks | which can be installed via ubuntustudio-installer | 21:15 |
| OvenWerks | (or atp) | 21:16 |
| OvenWerks | *apt maybe? (fingers are not doing what I want) | 21:16 |
| AppAraat[m] | I remember seeing some JACK and ALSA configs there as well. | 21:17 |
| AppAraat[m] | It kinda sucks that Riot.im is unable to search messages by username, otherwise I could just search on my own username and find it easily here. | 21:17 |
| OvenWerks | now /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf _should_ get installed by the instalation of Jackd2, but many sw installers don't do this right. | 21:18 |
| OvenWerks | what is not installed by any package is the rtirq package because it should be set up differently depending on the audio device in use | 21:19 |
| AppAraat[m] | ooh found it! https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-default-settings/tree/ | 21:20 |
| OvenWerks | That package has been split | 21:20 |
| AppAraat[m] | oh | 21:21 |
| Eickmeyer | OvenWerks: It's still the source package for performance tweaks. | 21:21 |
| OvenWerks | Actually if you look inside the debian directory | 21:21 |
| AppAraat[m] | what's the reasoning behind the split? | 21:21 |
| OvenWerks | you will find that the source you are looking at does provide performance tweaks and the grub settings | 21:22 |
| OvenWerks | because some of the default settings are specific to xfce | 21:22 |
| OvenWerks | You are looking at the right file | 21:22 |
| OvenWerks | To be honest, I don't know if the timer setting access is even needed anymore... there may be some applications that still use though | 21:24 |
| OvenWerks | swappiness 10 is still reasonable though | 21:25 |
| AppAraat[m] | across what packages has that package been split btw? | 21:26 |
| OvenWerks | ubuntustudio-default-settings, ubuntustudio-lowlatency-settings and ubuntustudio-performance-tweaks | 21:27 |
| AppAraat[m] | thanks a lot, I'll take a look at all of those packages later on | 21:28 |
| OvenWerks | The lowlatency settings just tweaks grub so that at boot up if you have both a generic and lowlatency, the low latency will be default | 21:28 |
| OvenWerks | (even if the generic was installed last) | 21:28 |
| OvenWerks | -default-settings will be xfce desktop settings and performance-tweaks is for audio setup. | 21:29 |
