[15:34] <sethu[m]1> Hey guys, how is it going in Ubuntu Studio land these days?
[15:35] <sethu[m]1> Does anyone know how can i connect my electric guitar to my computer an get sound to my headphones connected to same computer?
[15:35] <sethu[m]1> it works with `pactl load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1`
[15:36] <sethu[m]1> but it has humongous latency
[15:36] <sethu[m]1> so i installed jack and controll gui for it
[15:36] <sethu[m]1> but i have no idea what to connect to what to get output to my headphones
[15:37] <sethu[m]1> any suggestions?
[15:40] <MauroGaspari[m]> sethu: this is not exactly the same thing you are trying to do, but I wrote a basic tutorial on how to setup Ubuntu Studio jack audio. you can have a look: https://frontpagelinux.com/tutorials/ubuntu-studio-20-10-audio-setup-tutorial/
[15:42] <sethu[m]1> i am running groovy and installed US Installer as suggested and running low latency kernel - i already used your article for that :)
[15:43] <sethu[m]1> But have problem with Studio Controls:
[15:43]  * sethu[m]1 sent a long message:  < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.org/vLVmdDRxSBHHuxSRyesLhLbi/message.txt >
[15:44] <sethu[m]1> so i am stuck with QjackCTL
[15:46] <sethu[m]1> this is what i get when i start jack

[15:46] <sethu[m]1> but no guitar in my headphones....
[15:46] <sethu[m]1> is there something else i need to do?
[15:48] <sethu[m]1> and btw thank you guys for frontpagelinux, i am fan of your work and of course all destination stuff 👍️
[15:51] <sethu[m]1> this are my system sound settings:

[16:52] <sirriffsalot> sethu[m]1: do you have an audio interface that can take the signal from your guitar? :P
[16:53] <sethu[m]1> Guitar is connected to ZOOM G2.1u, that is connected  PC via USB, headphones are connected to PC via Bluetooth
[16:54] <sethu[m]1> as i mentioned it works when i issue pactl load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1 in cli
[16:54] <sethu[m]1> but too high latency to be usable
[16:55] <sethu[m]1>  * as i mentioned it works when i issue "pactl load-module module-loopback latency_msec=1" in terminal
[16:57] <sethu[m]1> i can record giutar in audacity bu cant hear what i play while recording, plaiback of recorded sound works though afterward

[17:04] <DiogoConstantino> hi all
[19:29] <sethu[m]1> Ok guys now i know where problem is. JACK does not recognize system bluetooth as sound device therefore it wont show as available hw device in setup and can not be connected
[19:30] <sethu[m]1> Is there any way to make JACK accept bluetooth as audio device?
[19:33] <sethu[m]1> it can, like this: `pactl load-module module-loopback source=jack_in`
[19:36] <sethu[m]1> but then again latency became problematic and sound quality rapidly falls down so still no go
[19:36] <sethu[m]1> any ideas?
[20:01] <rgh> sethu: I've seen this question pop up from time to time and no one ever had a solution.
[20:01] <rgh> Low latency audio with Bluetooth doesn't seem possible.
[22:02] <OvenWerks> sethu[m]1: have you kept it up to date? (sudo apt update, sudo apt dist-upgrade)?
[22:04] <sethu[m]1> OvenWerks: yes i did after install
[22:04] <OvenWerks> sethu[m]1: A) pulse is not ever low latency B) JACK and ALSA do not have any way fo sending to a bluetooth headset except through pulse.
[22:05] <OvenWerks> sethu[m]1: I would suggest that bluetooth != low latency
[22:06] <OvenWerks> in fact, in general, anything wireless will not have lowlatency
[22:07] <sethu[m]1> Yeah that seems to be the case
[22:09] <OvenWerks> also, for reference, JACK will generally not work with two different devices, one for input and one for output. One of the two devices would need to be bridged through some SRC code. This is what studio-controls does using zita-ajbridge.
[22:10] <OvenWerks> The coming but not ready yet, pipewire should help with a lot of this. It is supposed to allow low latency as well as bluetooth
[22:11] <sethu[m]1> That would be truly fantastic!
[22:11] <OvenWerks> unfortunately the version of pipewire available in the ubuntu repo (even for 21.04) is quite old and missing a lot.
[22:13] <sethu[m]1> Is there a chance these features will get in for 22.04?
[22:13] <OvenWerks> I have no idea really
[22:13] <sethu[m]1> Let's hope then :)
[22:14] <OvenWerks> pipewire itself has some way to go yet, and what ubuntu has is ~a year behind
[22:16] <OvenWerks> if upstream pipewire seems redy and stable that may change
[22:18] <sethu[m]1> Well that si for devs involved to consider. Btw do you have an idea when homed may come into ubuntu?
[22:19] <OvenWerks> sethu[m]1: The problem you mention with python is known (I can't show it on my system) and a rebuild of libs in question has been requested (it seems they were built out of order)
[22:33] <sethu[m]1> OvenWerks: Thank you
