Re: Audacity

That's probably the worst howto page ever ;) It only complicates things and doesn't even explain how to use a USB mic in Audacity.
@Nihilist88, "Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate." And what type of USB mic do you have?

Re: M-audio Fast Track

My brother-in-law has one. It's plug and play. Haven't tested it extensively though but it appears to be a usable device.

Re: Configuration 'quickscan'

I would disable wifi in favour of an onboard network card for the simple reason that a lot of wifi devices are USB devices: jeremy@soushi:~$ lsusb | grep -i wlan Bus 003 Device 002: ID 03f0:171d Hewlett-Packard Wireless (Bluetooth + WLAN) Interface [Integrated Module] And concerning PulseAudio on Ub...

Re: Configuration 'quickscan'

You could try lowering your periods/buffer to 2. And maybe 'Force 16bit' helps.

Re: Configuration 'quickscan'

Hello plexi45, I have an ASUS notebook with almost the same onboard SiS card. It won't work properly with JACK at lower settings.

Best,

Re: NON ubuntu package

Cool!! I've taken a look at it to package it myself but Non uses customised configure scripts so I didn't dig in it deeper yet.

Re: Is there a JACK music player?

I prefer Aqualung. And VLC has a JACK plugin and Rhythmbox works with JACK too.
I don't trust Audacious, it's still too buggy for me.

Re: How to make the life of Linux audio newbies easier

Pros: The wiki does have an 'upload' feature, and already has the user management stuff down. Cons: I'm not sure if it'd scale well, and it doesn't really allow for programmatic uploads very well. Certainly a good candidate - the fact that it's already up and running is a definite plus ;). When it ...

Re: How to make the life of Linux audio newbies easier

Isn't it possible to use the LinuxMusician Wiki for this?
And I'm willing to collaborate, but it will be next week when I'm back at work before I can contribute something substantial.

Re: New guy in CT

Hello rkwatts, welcome!
I'm with SR, Fedora 12 might be a good choice coming from a Red Hat background. I use F12 intensively at work and I like it. I'm still considering switching to F12 for audio production too but for the moment I'm happy with Ubuntu.

Re: JACK suddenly started giving XRUNS

As for limits.conf - I actually installed Ubuntu Studio Controls and use that... I don't know about Jaunty but on Karmic the Ubuntu Studio Controls messes up your limits.conf: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-controls/+bug/454082 So I would definitely check it, you just never know. And maybe...
