Heya, been looking for some days now for a fix to my problem - no application wants to output to my phase x24 fw soundcard. When i posted about it is was linked to this mailing list :) First some system info: jackd --version: jackd version 0.103.0 tmpdir /dev/shm protocol 16 uname -rsvo: Linux 2.6.24.2-1.rt1.3.fc8.ccrmart #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Tue Feb 12 19:22:02 EST 2008 GNU/Linux libiec61883: libiec61883-1.1.0-1.fc7 libraw1934: libraw1394-1.3.0-3.1.fc8.ccrma libavc1394: libavc1394-0.5.3-1.fc6 libfreebob: libfreebob-1.0.3-1.fc7 I'm running fedora core 8, with a realtime patched kernel from planet CCRMA (a repo specialised for audio), including jack from there.

And the message log from qjackctl gets some new messages: 20:31:58.713 ALSA connection change. 20:32:09.409 ALSA connection graph change. 20:32:37.114 ALSA connection graph change. 20:32:37.165 JACK connection graph change. unknown destination port in attempted connection [alsa_pcm:playback_1] If i open up the connect settings in qjackctl, i can see that it detects the card, with 4 in 4 out channels, all with "PHASE X24 FW" somewhere in the name. When i press start/stop in qjackctl, i can hear a slight.. crunch (translation program, forgot the word, and this word was not what i was out for) through the speakers. Running jack with alsa as the handler works - hydrogen outputs without problems (hydrogen set to jack, jack set to alsa). Any idea what is needed to get it to work? Is my only real option to compile from SVN, or am i missing something? Sorry if this message is bloated, but i believe in more information than too little. -- //Cincerly SteelSide //Mvh Daniel

Re: [LAU] (jack) metronome

by Arnold Krille

Am Dienstag, 19. Februar 2008 schrieben Sie: > Is there a good jack metronome that comes with ubuntu studio? Probably you want that question to reach the list, as I don't use ubuntu studio, nor do I know which packages it contains. All I can say is that TapStart and hydrogen make an (almost) perfect couple. And if ardour supports aligning samples by bar:beat:tick and listens to tempo-changes from jack, this could be an even better partner for TapStart...

Windows Midi GM Wavetable Synth

by N. Gey

Hello list, I'm a linux audio user for quite some time now and in general everything is fine. But for some reasons I want to use the standard Windows XP General Midi Samples, known as "GM Synth" or something like this in my linux enviroment. I posses a legally bought XP version and want to use it for privat purpose only, so all I ask is a technical thing. Do you know a way to extract and transform the XP bank? greetings Nils Cologne, Germany P.S. Yes I know there a plenty of free and good GM-banks out there, but sometimes you just get used to some sounds.

Jack takes exclusive access when you start it. If it's unable to get exclusive access it will fail to start. Once it has started, other programs will be unable to access that audio device. The device is released when jack stops. Sampo Sampo
