If I play a MP3 with
$ pacman -Q vlc
vlc 2.0.5-4
by jack and the volume is set to 100%, I hear and see clipping in
hdspmixer. It goes up to 0 dBFS at around 90%. FWIW the volume can be
increased up to 200%.
Anybody experiencing the same on (what distro ever)?
I just noticed this on my Fedora 17 system. I run jackd like this:
[paul@watt ~]$ /usr/bin/jackd --realtime -dalsa -dhw:0 -r48000 -p512 -n2

Everything looks fine, and jackd claims it has realtime mode. I've
been away from Linux audio for a while, but doesn't realtime mode mean
RT scheduling? If I check the process's scheduler policy and
priority, it is NOT RT:
[paul@watt ~]$ ps -p 20370 -o cmd,class,pri,rtprio
CMD CLS PRI RTPRIO
/usr/bin/jackd --realtime - TS 19 -
I've added myself to the jackuser group:
[paul@watt ~]$ groups
paul wheel dialout wireshark jackuser
That group is already set up properly:
[paul@watt ~]$ cat /etc/security/limits.d/95-jack.conf
# Default limits for users of jack-audio-connection-kit
@jackuser - rtprio 70
@jackuser - memlock 4194304
@pulse-rt - rtprio 20
@pulse-rt - nice -20
Anyone have any idea what's going on here?
Hi,
At the moment I'm trying to bind my bcr2000 to amsynth. Midi learn works
fine so far and I understand that I need to save a preset in the
bcr2000, but when I reconnect amsynth, the binding doesn't work anymore,
so I guess I also have to save and load something in amsynth?
Anyone experience with a hardware midi controller (maybe even the
bcr200) and AMS? Does that work ok?
Best regards,
\r

Ghostery informs about e.g. a Zuckerberg connection. We know that your

Yesterday I finally tried the native Linux port of REAPER and posted the
following reports to the Cockos forum at
http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=83324 so I thought everyone here
would be interested too.
- danboid's 1st post to REAPER WDL dev thread -
It appears to me there was a brief resurgence of activity on the Linux
Swell port in December but little if anything has happened since? I hope
I'm wrong!
I couldn't believe it when I discovered earlier today that there has been
some sort of rudimentary native Linux port of REAPER on LoL since June
2011! I've long known REAPER was supported and ran well under wine but I
have a big issue with depending upon wine - I don't really like using
REAPER that way because I'm all too aware of the negative impact the wine
layer has on (JACK) performance and stability. I only heard about the Linux
native port in late December when my current band PistonFunkMachine used it
to record our debut album.
For yet another unknown reason, it was only today that I was inspired to
find out where the Swell port is up to and if possible give it a go myself.
Although it seems to still be practically unusable right now, I was
thrilled to see REAPER start up successfully and let me use most of the
interface. This was when using the libswell within
libSwell-x86_64-debian-wheezy-gtk3.tar.xz running under 64bit KX Studio
12.04.2.
REAPER loads and you can add tracks and browse through the menus here but I
realised I wasn't going to get much further when I discovered that the
open/save file windows don't appear when you select either option and the
same goes for the plugin window. It doesn't appear here!
I compiled Swell from git but had much less success. REAPER failed to start
at all and just barfed:
./reaper: symbol lookup error:
/home/dan/src/reaper_linux_x86_64/REAPER/libSwell.so: undefined symbol:
gdk_init_check
So, I may not be able to enjoy REAPER under my OS of choice properly just
yet but I'll be trying some of REAPERS VST plugins under qtractor soon.
When I have I'll report back here with the plugin results.
I also spotted a small error in:
http://www.landoleet.org/dev/libSwell-roll-your-own.txt
It says:
apt-get install build-essentials libgtk-3-dev
but the package name is actually build-essential without the 's'. Total
nitpick, I realise - especially at this stage!
I'm hoping Bitwig and Ardour 3.0 will give reason for more LinuxVST plugin
ports in the run up to LinREAPER. I'll certainly be buying REAPER as soon
as the Linux port works!
- Today's update re: plugins -
I have tried a few of the REAPER VST FX under qtractor but unfortunately
all I get is a stream of various 'SWELL API not found' errors.
I copied libswell (the binary from LoL that lets me start REAPER) into
/usr/lib as well as my vst plugins dir but that didn't help.
Hey all,
No question is a stupid question, as they say, so I might as well ask.
What kind of external audio hardware/JACK trickery would I need to
send a synth running on my laptop through a seperate output channel on
an audio interface with multiple ins/outs, send it, let's say, through
some outboard effects, and then back into the laptop as a seperate
input?
Cheers,
Andrew.
Oops,
I get informed that mails didn't came through the list, but they came
through. My apologize for already sending a copy of one mail.
I've taken a look to the archive and I guess _all_ mails came through.
It might be an issue with my provider, but I want to inform about this,
perhaps it's an issue for the list.
Unfortunately I deleted the notification mails, but it were _no_
postmaster mails about _delayed_ mails, there was the claim that mails
didn't came through.
Regards,
Ralf

if the USB controller doesn't allow to disable it, than I need to find
out, how to open the case :(, without damaging it.
