![]() I don’t know what you do with MIDI but if it’s drums, I’d highly recommend Hydrogen. When I have to work with MIDI files I use Rosegarden (which I highly recommend). I also re-read you first post an noticed your mention of Ardour 3. Good luck and let me know if I can help you with anything :o). I would say you will just have to “play” with the jack settings until you find what works really good. I have set the “frames/period” to 64 and go the latency down to 4.3 something with no xruns… but I don’t push it. I have a latency of… err, 30 something and no xruns at all. I set that to 512 and “periods/buffer” to 3 (I read somewhere that USB soundcards should be set to 3. If you go into settings in qjackctl you will see “frames/period”. I use a GNX4 guitar workstation for my recording (it acts like an external USB soundcard). Hardware is different and should require different settings to run properly. Quote: “Are there any settings in Jack i have to adjust to my machine?” So keep realtime checked even if you’re not running a RT kernel. I’ve noticed, when not running a RT kernel, if I uncheck realtime, I get a ton of xruns and everything sounds bad. I highly recommend it! It has a setting in it you can check for realtime also. I use a jack “frontend” called “qjackctl”. I always start jack before anything else. Okay, I’m at work and not at my machine and I’m by “no” means an pro-audio expert but I’ll try to give you some help o). I recorded a CD on a freinds apple using MOTU, the MIDI editing, in/output was just a dream. PS: I really need that MIDI option in Ardour3. This means i could try some Interfaces on my system no matter if its a pci card or firewire and give some reports. Im living just some km’s from europes biggest musicians store (in germany) away where you got a 30days trial period for EVERY product. I got tons of more questions but dont want to scare anybody. Is Ubuntustudio a better option? I heard that its not very stable. Is the RT-Kernel crucial for recording? I installed it some days ago but it couldnt log in becaus some problems with grafix. When i got 2 applications runing like Ardour and Tuxguitar (for writing Songs) only one can play sound. Im using Ubuntu for like 5 years but audio was never something for me to go deeper into. The same thing goes for Linux and audio in general. Whenever i recorded something i just opend Ardour, selected the inputs and everything was fine, but jack seems to be very important and i don’t have any clue of how it works. One thing thats still a big mystery for me is JACK. As getting sound into your computer is essential for homerecording maybe you could give me some tips of how to setup everything, or maybe you already have experience with those interfaces. So my choice would be the EDIROL FA-66 or the Presonus Firepod. I know there are lots of discussions about this topic, which i all read. So far everything was pretty much plug&play but im looking out for a linux compatible audio interface. The signal comes from the BOSS GT-50 Effectpedal, which has extra out for headphones/recording. I’m still recording through that crappy Line-In on my PC. Ubuntu 9.04 with newest Kernel (no RT-Kernel yet)ģ Ibanez Guitars and 1 BC Rich Warlock NJ Deluxeīoss GT-50 and Rocktron Intellifex vor effects I am using Ardour for 1 month now and can say i am pretty much impressed of how easy things were going so far. So maybe this post could also help the developers one making Ardour a better DAW. So maybe you can give me some tips and hinds, because i am really excited about what ardour and jack really can. I want to give you some kind of report, of how my first step into this giant universe of making music on pc was and of course i have a lot of questions. ![]() You have to love how cool the open-source community is and how great people are.I am totally new to ardour and homerecording on linux in general. I just thought that as my Digitech is quite old and stuff, nobody would care about this for Linux. To be fair, I don’t know why I am so hyped about this. And even something for the GT-100 from Boss here. ![]() And if you have a Fender Mustang Amp, there is also Plug. And obviously recording the old fashion way with a microphone.īut I’ve heard good things about Guitarix too. As the pedal I have can connect via USB to the PC, I can actually record what I play directly with Audacity, and it sounds pretty good. (Gdigi currently supports the following Digitech models: RP150, RP155, RP250, RP255, RP355, RP500, RP1000, GNX3000, GNX4K) Gdigi in action on Fedora 37Īudacity to record audio and even edit it. Pretty happy to have this working perfectly on my main OS. Gdigi is the alternative to X-Edit for some Digitech multi-effects pedals I mentioned at the start of the article.
