Yes, I will learn to use Jack "soon" and will use the videos; thanks
for making them. "learning audio", well, I've never working with audio
before other than simple analog. Don't know the jargon, don't
quite understand why I can't record over a track in Rezound like I record
over a track on tape; what's a cue used for; why isn't there pause button
on alsaplayer. But I'm learning, and using Linux audio. Where I am
now is my office/music-room that's setup for playing all the time. Our
group of players get together about once a week to play and learn play
better. Keyboard (sounds from Linux) ready 24/7; 5 good mikes, stands,
chairs and room for more. Instrument amps, congas, .... Using Rezound,
QAMix, Realplayer (alsaplayer ...) to record/playback snippets of internet
radio jazz shows to study tunes. Listening is a key to learning to play
better. I listening streaming radio most of the time I'm in the room;
listening to CJRT right now using Realplay. Rezound is ready to capture
a snippet when I want to.
Jack, Ardour recording what we play, ... comes "soon". I'm slow, you know.
Have fun,
Marv in Lex. KY
One of my
problems is I'm learning audio and linux at the
same time; I'm an old-IBMmainframe-Win3.1 APL user / sax
player. I'm having fun but not attempting Jack & all yet.
What do you plan when saying 'I'm learning audio'? If you want
to use your box for making music, you should learn how to use
jack. Watch my videos to get a basic overview.
