QJackCtl and JACK MIDI

by Dave Phillips

Greetings, I want to start working with JACK MIDI, but I'm not sure I understand its requirements. I have a recent QJackCtl with the separate MIDI and ALSA tabs, and I note that in Setup there's a MIDI driver selector. Everything's fine if I leave it at None, but JACK won't start if I select either Raw or Seq. I receive a rather cryptic message " Unknownage with option 'X' " and that's it. JACK is version 0.103, QJackCtl is version 0.3.2, on JAD 1.0. Please advise if other info is needed. Am I missing something obvious ? Also, where can I find the sources to the aseq2jackmidi module ? (Yes, I'm too lazy to search the LAU archives.) Best, dp

Compiling Lied

by David Baron

Truthfully, this is a editor for lilypond files. Keep getting missing xft_... references. If this be xfont stuff, I have all the libraries installed and the configure does not kick. Any ideas?

Mac Book Pro or not

by julien lociuro

Hi all, First of all, thanks for your answers concerning the firebox audio card. I'm planning to buy a laptop for audio work. I do not care about graphics, etc..only audio. Is it worthy to buy a Mac Book pro? Has anyone ever worked with this machine? I see that a linux can be installed on it. Is this recommended? Has anyone worked with the Mac OSX? Can we directly install linux apps on it as it is unix-bases os? (with some additional libs?) Also, my concern is that it really costs a lot..in europe, 1800€ for the basic model (15" monitor). With that money, isn't it better to buy another great laptop? Also, is there any problem with laptops and linux? How can I be sure linux could installed on it..(graphic card, processor, firewire..) Advices welcome!! Thank you very much. -- julien

It can print out tab/score pages though one has only tab and a fingerboard diagram for entry. Can read musicXML. This is old stuff, however and what I have is not very stable.

It does run on Wine. You might try using lilypond. There is, if one can figure out how to get to it, tab capabilities!
