I have a lot of hardware, including several Tentacle Sync units that send
LTC audio to cameras. I need to connect this audio to Linux for some MTC
coding in C/C++ of midi events for "live in the studio" performances.
I am a little rusty in my Linux Audio skills. I seem to have this interface
ready to go with Jack but I get no sound of the LTC from my internal
speakers with or without Jack. I am running OpenSuse leap 15.
I have two shells open, one with a Jack Session and one with jltcdump. The
jack command does change the display on the interface. I couldn't get
qjackctl to recognize the usb interface, only the default intel sound
devices. Audacity doesn't see the device. Any ideas?
