So, I went a bit further in the troubleshooting process. I realized that
Reaper autosaves .wav files of what's being played.
While those files when played through the audio board (as output device)
and with headphones are distorted, if I play them out of my pc speakers
they come out nicely.
Besides, Reaper can also use ALSA as input, not only JACK and the
results are the same.
So I may have to look elsewhere for my issue.

Hello,
I'm new to audio production in Linux, so apologies in advance if I
will use wrong terms and bad jargon. I'd like to record my guitars and
bass, but I've found a problem which I think it can be JACK-related.
I bought 2 USB audio interfaces, a 2-channel Behringer which I
returned and a Focusrite Solo 3rd gen, which I'm testing right now.
The issue that I have is with the programs that use JACK, like
Guitarix and Reaper. It seems I can only get distorted sounds out of
them and both have JACK as input source.
Instead, Audacity, which lets me choose the hardware audio interface
directly, lets me hear the sound of my instrument just fine.
What I've tried so far:
- my everyday Ubuntu 18.04 with low-latency patch: Guitarix and Reaper
distorted audio and Audacity just fine
- live AVlinux: Guitarix distorted audio and Audacity just fine
- live Ubuntu Studio: Guitarix distorted audio and Audacity just fine
Can someone please help? What else can I try?
I'd like to stick with Ubuntu 18.04, as it is my main everyday desktop.
Thank you.
Roberto
