MIDI Port names in Jack

by Kevin Utter

Hi all! I'm wondering why so many of my MIDI ports in Jack are named so similarly, and if they can be changed? I don't remember this being a problem on my previous Linux system, but there are a few differences. I'm avoiding GUIs and need to use CLI tools, so no Qjackctl suggestions, please. I'm using an M-Audio MIDI sport Uno USB midi interface, and the virMIDI device for internal patching, as well as MIDISH. In jack, all of those, along with the main system ports like through are all listed as system midi playback or capture and a number. I've tried both raw and seq jack MIDI modes. I can see which is which with Jack_lsp with the -A or -t options set. But I was hoping to use something like Jack Plumbing for reconnecting, and since the real client names don't show up, I can't get jack plumbing to see them. Since the port numbers aren't always the same, I can't depend on the suffix digits to identify the right port. Then, using MIDISH, where the ports come and go when it starts and stops, its port numbers seem to increment each time as well. Should I perhaps be using A2Jmidid instead of the jack MIDI modes? Is there something else I'm missing? Or is this a difference between Jack 1 and Jack 2? Or differences from Ubuntu 9-10 and 12-10? Sorry to be so wordy, but wanted to be clear. Thanks for any help.

Session managers

by Ralf Mardorf

Hi, do session managers take care about the configurations of audio apps, e.g. do they save and restore ~/.config/rncbc.org/ too? Can they launch apps by a terminal emulation as I can do it using a script? E.g. xfce4-terminal --maximize -T "♪ jackd" -e "jackd --sync -dalsa -r$sample_rate -p$frames_period" xfce4-terminal --maximize -T "♪ qtractor" -e qtractor\ $song_path/qtr/$song_name-$song_version_qtr.qtr Somebody on the Arch general mailing list mentioned to use session managers, when I ask "How to safe configs to another path than ~" - https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-general/2013-July/thread.html#… I'm looking for a solution, not only for audio sessions, but for audio sessions it's the most important.

Trouble with mod-host

by Julien Claassen

Hello everyone! I just found, that there were quite a few updates for mod-host in the git repository. But after having built the software, I discovered a few problems. When starting mod-host I always get this message: error: PROTOCOL_MAX_COMMANDS reached (reconfigure it) In mod-host's interactive shell (mod-host -i), I can get help, but when typing quite, I get the message: not found. The command can even be completed, so a typo is unlikely. :-) Any ideas or fixes for this? Warm regards Julien ---------------------------------------- http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html

linearly increasing velocity

by Milan Lazecky

Hi, I will play one song to my sister's wedding in 14 days :) the idea is that it starts slow and then every measure goes little faster (+XX bpm) than previous one. Then it remains few measures in the final (fast) speed. Does anybody have experience (with any linux utility) for this? Thank you. Milan

Headless jackdbus (no X11)

by Len Ovens

I have in the past used something like a jackstart script in a headless situation before, which started dbus and exported it's info so jackdbus would work. It is actually easier to use: dbus-launch screen Then use screen as your CLI session manager. jack_control can then be used to run jack and change settings on the fly (like latency?). Audio applications can be run in other screen terminals to use jack... and if you really want to go crazy you can throw pulse at the mix... though I am really not sure what pulse supporting applications you hope to find that are CLI (I tested it with paplay, but there is no gain using that over jack.play). -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net

jack CD ripping: coding failed, err#8

by Peter P.

Hi, using the jack command line CD ripping program, the extraction from CD audio to wav works fine, but the encoder (pre-set to flac in the .jack3rc config file) seems to fail. Jack gives me "coding failed, err#8" for each CD track. Can't find a -verbose or -debug flag to make it tell me more. Any ideas and help is greatly appreciated! best, Peter
