Cadence as suddenly decided to work. The screen is no longer grayed out and I can make changes to the configuration. I have no idea what made it start working. All I've done to my system is install 2 packages and apply updates and I really don't think that had anything to do with it. I still believe...

I have not tried reinstalling cadence. I know that it is related to the user account because I created a test account and it runs fine under it. I have tried removing the following and allowing jack and cadence to recreate them: ~/.config/Cadence ~/.config/jack ~/.config/falkTX ~/.asoundrc I don't s...

Hi merlyn. I have tried both of your suggestion and it does not resolve the Grayed out issue. I created a test account and cadence work fine under it, so there is something under my user account that is messed up. I've tried: deleting ~/.config/Cadence deleting ~/.config/jack deleting ~/.config/.aso...

Ok - I've gotten jack to load and work, however Cadence is still Grayed Out and not configurable. my ~/.xinitrc starts Cadence cadence-session-start --maybe-system-start & ~/.config/jack/config <?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- JACK settings, as persisted by D-Bus object. You probably don't w...

jack2-dbus is installed

Cadence has worked great for years but yesterday when I started cadence, all settings were greyed out. I have made no changes to the system [ archlinux] other than apply updates. I've tried: cadence-session-start --maybe-system-start JACK is set to NOT auto-start on login Tried: cadence-session-star...

Thanks for the suggestion. I found polyphone. It has the functionality to export sf2, sf3 and sfz from wave samples. The built-in documentation is good and a tutorial is located in the appendices. Also there is a short tutorial demonstrating basic work flow of the process: https://www.youtube.com/wa...

I have .wav samples of a Vox Contential I'd like to use.

Normally I use .sf2 sound fonts via Qsynth but I have no idea how to use wave samples.

Is it possible and if so what sampler would be used?

That fixed it!!! If anyone else has this issue here is what I did. I Logged in to my account at focusrite.com/support There I found three different version of saffire-mixcontrol I downgraded to 2.40 After downgrading I started the mixer and under help about: Saffire Mix Control 2.4 Pro40-00be12 - Vi...

I had contacted Focusrite support a week ago about another problem and they gave me a downgrade. I was to install it and the restart the mixer and allow it to upgrade. They thought the perhaps there was corruption. Anyway - I'll try the downgrade though I don't know what version it is... Thank you!!!

The Saffire Pro 40 is a new audio interface for me. I have been using a Focusrite Saffire for years and had upgraded recently. The Pro 40's MIDI worked perfectly for up until yesterday. As stated above I had booted to windows and tested it and found it perfectly functional. Today I disconnected the ...

Kernel: 4.0.1-1-ARCH
alsa-lib 1.0.29-1
lib32-alsa-lib 1.0.29-1
jack2 1.9.10-1
libffado 2.2.1-2

I created another user account and got midi to work under ALSA. It is not very stable - any xruns will drop the connection. Still need to try reinstalling packages and see if that helps the stability. khz, - I read through the Saffire PRO 40 link sometime ago. I don't think it is related to what is ...

I booted to windows and tested using seq24. Everything worked OK. That should rule out any type of hardware issues or component failures. Guess I'll create another user acct so I have clean config files and see if that makes a difference. If that doesn't work will start uninstalling/reinstalling pac...
