Re: qjackctl manual connection works, patchbay fails

After some further playing around, I created a new patchbay based on a snapshot of the current connections, which seems to work properly, but the exact same connection just refuses to reconnect in the old file. I don't really want to abandon the old file because it has a lot of other connections tha...

qjackctl manual connection works, patchbay fails

I'm having a problem with a2jmidid not connecting to yoshimi unless I click it manually in the connection window for every session. The patchbay used to work, but no longer does, which might have something to do with some recent updates. The patchbay still seem to wire everything else up, just not a...

[solved] youtube freezes (or won't start playback) when Jack is running

I was grappling with an issue on a new Fedora 23 system (new root; home settings carried over) where youtube videos wouldn't start playing while Jack was running. As soon as I stopped the Jack server, playback would instantly resume (but without sound because my the audio on my system is routed thro...

Re: Pulseaudio JACK Sink automagically connects to system, b

Thanks emarsk and bluebell. I currently use qjackctl's patchbay, and I think I've managed to tame VLC, but is there any way to use it to automatically remove the unwanted pulseaudio connections? Can the "exclusive" option inside the patchbay settings do it? Even so, that would seem a bit i...

Pulseaudio JACK Sink automagically connects to system, but..

I enabled the "Pulseaudio JACK Sink" based on these instructions: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/18/html/Musicians_Guide/sect-Musicians_Guide-Integrating_PulseAudio_with_JACK.html but I don't want it to automatically connect to the 'system' output. Does anyone know where the sc...

Re: JACK No Longer Sees MIDI Hardware

Check if there might be some conflict between jackd, jackdbus, and maybe jack2-dbus. For some reason, qjackctl has been silently failing to execute ANY scripts on my fedora machine. In the "execute script after start-up" box: a2jmidid -e & was giving the same result as: xwhateverbadscr...

You were right! Silly me, in Duplex mode the "default" option works for both input/output subdevices, which I didn't check earlier. :) jackd doesn't seem to work from the command line: [size=85]jackd -dalsa -dhw:Device jackdmp 1.9.8 Copyright 2001-2005 Paul Davis and others. Copyright 2004...

Re: Is anyone making any money as a musician? (mp3 sales)

Has anyone considered accepting Bitcoin for payment? With minimal transaction fees and pretty easy start-up, it strikes me as the perfect solution for anyone who is struggling with high fees for donations and low-cost tracks. I'm wondering if I should start a separate thread on this, as Bitcoin is a...

Re: how do you compose your songs?
