Hi all, I first installed the KX Studio repositories, and later I updated to the full KX Studio (kxstudio-desktop and kxstudio-meta-all), but now there's no sound. In the alsamixer I have turned all the volume sliders for my soundcard (M-Audio 2496) up, except for some called <Multi Tr> where it's n...

Sigh........ Now Rosegarden behaves the old way again, and nothing helps. I give up!

Hi again, sorry for my late reply, and thanks very much. Rosegarden is playing MIDI fine now, and I don't have to reset things anymore. So that problem is solved :D About KX, I followed the steps here http://kxstudio.linuxaudio.org/Repositories , that is these: # Install required dependencies if nee...

MIDI Preferences tick the 'Load Soundfont to Soundblaster card at startup' MIDI preferences: SoundFont /home/your-user/FluidR#_GM.sf2 Midi Sync tab: everything is disabled (temporarily) Audio Preferences: tick each of the four vertical boxes Studio menu: tick the 'MIDI Thru routing' Check jackd con...

OK, I created the audio group and added myself to it. Rebooted, started Qjackctl, amsynth, and RG (in that order), checked the connections in Qjackctl, but nothing has changed. I still have to do all the corrections in 'Manage MIDI devices' and 'Instrument Parametrers' after opening a MIDI file, and...

Thanks, I've edited and saved the files with leafpad now. And in Qjackctl 'Realtime' is ticked, and I've set priority to 89. Then I ran the command groups: tl adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare nopasswdlogin Since 'audio' was not there, I followed the steps in your link http://www.cyberci...

Ok, I wrote sudoedit /etc/security/limits.config and got a terminal with this: GNU nano 2.2.6 Fil: /var/tmp/limitsXXxCtksm.config Ændret [empty black space here] [ Læste 0 linjer ] ^G Få hjælp ^O Gem ^R Læs fil ^Y ForrigSide^K Klip ud ^C Akt. pos ^X Afslut ^J Ombryd ^W Hvor er ^V NæsteSide ^U Indsæt...

Yes, Qjackctl was running before Yoshimi, and I also checked the connections were right. Also, I'm logged in as normal user. Only when I change settings in the system, install new programs, etc, it's as "superuser". I could imagine MATE has some limitations that might cause the problems, i...

Thank you, I first tried with "yoshimi -a -K" but got this message: tl@tl-P5Q-SE ~ $ yoshimi -a -K Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started Failed jack_client_open(), status: 11 ...

Thank you both. Ok, I installed Yoshimi, loaded it, then Rosegarden, and made the connections in QjackCtl. When playing a MIDI file now in RG (after "fixing" the channel, checking the 'Bank', and re-setting the MIDI in- and outputs, as always) there's still no sound, and also no activity a...

So to be sure, with Vkeybd if you play the keys you can get sound from qsynth and you see the activity light flash? Correct? Nether. No sound and no activity light flash. With Rosegarden connected to QmidiRoute, you won't get sound, but you should see CCs and notes being listed in its window. Are y...

Oh THAT dot, ok :D In QjackCtl, the line between rosegarden on the left and FLUID Synth on the right is already there. I've installed vkeybd and it's also connected to Qsynth now. I've tried running Rosegarden with QmidiRoute (which I started before RG) instead of Qsynth, but in this case there's no...

Thanks folderol and glowrak guy for your patience. glowrak guy, I've done as you say: Changed the qjackctl MIDI Driver setting to 'none'. Selected a soundfont, this time Fluid R3 (which I downloaded from the net, i couldn't install vmpk, and it's not with Qsynth) In the alsa tab of qjackctl, I've co...

It was a MIDI file, and I imported it, but now I'll open it. Yes, I always have Qsynth running before Rosegarden, also when re-starting Qsynth I restart RG. In Playback parameters, the instrument number is the same as the track number in all cases, and the blue track playback button is lit for all t...
