[03:35] is there any alternative to minuet? seems like its not maintained anymore [04:47] 1morehelp [04:47] !morehelp [04:47] #ubuntustudio sometimes cannot answer your questions in a timely matter, or simply lacks the capacity. For additional sources of help, try #ubuntu if your issue is of a technical nature, or #lau (Linux Audio Users) or #opensourcemusicians if it has to do with the audio stack. [20:02] does anyone else have a behringer um2 and can you get it working on ubuntustudio? [20:02] guitarman: Yeah! I have one and it works perfectly. [20:02] Eickmeyer: weird it's not recognized on the liveusb [20:02] Out of the box, no issues. [20:03] Then I can only assume you have a hardware issue. It's a class-compliant device that doesn't require a driver. [20:04] Eickmeyer: yeah, it worked on manjaro before windows hosed my grub [20:04] on a windows update [20:04] so i'm looking at redoing the machine [20:04] Try switching USB cables, ports, trying it on a different machine. All I know is that device will work on Ubuntu Studio. [20:04] Eickmeyer: ok sounds good [20:05] it works on windows so i don't think it's the cable. [20:05] but yeah different machine i could try [20:05] It's got to be something. I know it's not Ubuntu (or Studio by extension). [20:06] yeah. i made a youtube video a while ago stating it worked fine on debian (years ago) and people in the comments were saying it wasn't working on linux mint etc. [20:06] I've used my UM2 on several machines with Ubuntu Studio, no issues. I also have a UMC404HD, no issues. [20:06] have you tried the um2 on jammy jellyfish? [20:07] Jammy Jellyfish and now Kinetic Kudu. I lead Ubuntu Studio, so I have no choice but to test it on latest/pre-release. [20:07] Eickmeyer: ok this is excellent [20:07] thank you. I'll nuke and pave and give it a go [20:08] Good luck! The UMC202 is also good (and inexpensive) so if it comes to that you might try it. [20:08] In fact, it's better in many respects. [20:08] Eickmeyer: yeah i think that's the one with the midas pres instead of xenix which are more noisy [20:08] re the umc202 [20:08] Oh yes, the midas pres alone make it worth it. In fact, that might be what I actually have, now that I think of it. [20:09] But, the UM202 should still work, so I don't know why you're having difficulty. [20:09] Could also be your Xenyx pres are shot, those are known to be flaky. [20:09] works fine in windows - not the best interface but suitable for now for me to make my covers with acoustic and voice. [20:10] Ah, gotcha. [20:10] i'd like to get back on linux though so i'll give it a go [20:10] Still, it's a class-compliant device, and Linux just works (tm) with it. [20:33] Eickmeyer: got it going in the ubuntu studio config area - didn't notice the usb devices tab [20:34] ardour still crashes but i think that's because it's trying to do realtime and can't on the live environment maybe? [20:34] audacity works wit hti though [20:34] guitarman: You mean Studio Controls? I didn't know you were using Jack. [20:34] Eickmeyer: yes [20:34] jack [20:34] Ah, that explains it. [20:34] how do you mean [20:35] Jack (the Jack Audio Connection Kit), if started by Studio Controls, will recognize and automatically connect any USB device, but not if it's started through another means like by Ardour. [20:35] i can't get ardour to use it - it crashes [20:35] something about realtime is mentioned [20:36] even if i've already started studio controls [20:36] Ardour needs to be closed completely before starting Jack. Once Jack is started by Studio Controls, open Ardour, start a new session, and have it connect to Jack (not ALSA). [20:36] i'll close it and try again [20:40] Eickmeyer: I get this: [20:40] Could not create session in "/home/ubuntu-studio/Untitled-2022-09-24-13-39-52" [20:40] ---ERROR: JACK: Cannot create thread res = 1 [20:40] ERROR: JACK: JackClient::AcquireSelfRealTime error [20:40] ERROR: JACK: Cannot use real-time scheduling (RR/5) (1: Operation not permitted) [20:40] jack was started already [20:40] in studio controls before i went in [20:41] is that because i'm in the live environment [20:41] ubuntustudio: Yes. [20:41] ok so if i was to install to disk it wouldn't do that [20:41] The live environment isn't set up for real-time scheduling. [20:41] Yes. [20:41] ok cool [20:41] thanks for your help - I really appreciate it [20:41] Quite welcome.
