Hi @Ben Tyson, thanks for testing! My absolute pleasure, very glad to be whatever help I can be with the excellent work you're doing! :D Also, thanks for the pointers, JamesPeters! So I've only gotten to to doing a little bit of playing around with buffer sizes and switching between saved mixer sta...

Is this a good place for feedback? I have a 3rd Gen 8i6, running on Ubuntu Studio 20.04. I've just compiled the liquorix kernel with the new driver, seems to be working fine from a quick test. I just loaded up a conveniently located Reaper project that I knew was relatively CPU-heavy, seems to be ru...

Hi Steve I don't know if Geoffrey is currently working on the driver, It seems his ability to do so is pretty sporadic from previous posts. Sadko4u has also put in some work, which I gather builds on Geoffrey's driver and has resulted in a slightly different version. Unfortunately in either case it'...

Let me describe what I have done, based on your input. [...] First of all, many thanks for that description, M, it helped me to get my head round what's actually being done in terms of what bits of code are being replaced/changed when patching the kernel. I don't know if this is something you'd ass...

I am, yeah

I'm still keen to help, if I can. My 8i6 seems to be mostly working fine with the crackle patch applied to Geoffrey's most recent prebuilt kernel but does seem to be getting more xruns than it was at first.

I decided to have a crack at compiling with the patch anyway, booted up fine and stuff was generally working as far as I could tell. Attempting to restore my saved mixer setup didn't work and the mixer looked different (two sliders on each channel, one blue and one red, with the red one moving as we...

Just came back to add to my previous post that when playing audio from Firefox while running Jack I'm getting a second or so of dropout accompanied by constant xruns during the dropout every few minutes. When I'm not using Jack, it doesn't appear to be happening. Cheers sadko4u! As I've never done a...

Hi folks I just got a Gen 3 8i6, I'm keen to help if I can. I have basically no experience with development etc so I would need instructions but I'd like to do something to help if I can! I'm running Ubuntu Studio 20.04, with the usual low latency 5.4.0-52 kernel it worked out of the box (once I'd p...

Hey guys Thanks for the response Michael, that's all helpful stuff! I forgot that this site wouldn't automatically give me notifications about replies so I spent a few lockdown days diving head first into everything and I've ended up working out how to run everything nicely, I think. I've got a scri...

Hey folks Been planning to switch away from Windows for a while, the recent end of support for Windows 7 just gave me the kick I needed to take the plunge. I'm a full time gigging musician, I play keyboard/piano and electric/double bass. Writing music is a passion, although my studio and production ...
