If your laptop boots from a CD you can use super grub boot disk to boot from a pendrive.

I still use version 1

I am getting the same problem in Bodhi, so it looks like it is a Ubuntu problem.

I had a similar problem recently. I got round it by using qjackctl to connect the input to 'system playback' to get monitor.

I use ZynAddSubFX or I use qsynth soundfont host with a decent soundfont.

In Ardour you can copy audio to a new track, then under the right click options when you click the clip, you can transpose either by octaves or semitones for harmonies or a small amount ('cents') for doubling. You can either slightly move the audio clip or use any number of delay plug ins for furthe...

I have managed to get an internal soundcard & a USB one running together, I don't know if the method will work for you, see:

There is a piece of software called remastersys that is for turning a running system in to a live CD. I have successfully used it on Bodhi, which is Debian/Ubuntu based.

Hi I set up jack for the alesis & then added the soundcard. I would not relish trying to sync tracks after 2 passes. I do not think the cassette transport is that reliable & minor variations mean you could be on to a hiding to nowhere. Ultimately 'the proof of the pudding is in the eating' &...

Just managed to use this to record four simultaneous tracks in Ardour (Stereo drum machine, guitar Vocals)

The only other thing I needed to do was connect the on board soundcard to the system playback using qjackctl to get monitor (through the usb soundcard) while playing.

Since asking managed to find this:

now have 4 inputs showing in qjackctl after running



in a terminal. Have yet to be able to try it out with the 4 track.

Hi I have some old 4 track cassette work I would love to remix & remaster. the problem is I neither have nor can afford a 4 track interface. I have an Alesis io2usb soundcard as well as a 24 bit capable soundblaster. I have Googled but not found anything I can comprehend or use. Is there any way...

If you want to do it the GUI way you can do it with VLC. Just choose convert/save from the media menu & use the options there. It offers mp3 or flac.

If you dislike pulse audio, I think you will find AVLinux makes a point of not having it.

Hi As kind of a sequel, thanks Pablo I didn't know that. Having said that I do find using the export facility on Hydrogen & importing the resultant audio in to Ardour easier. Even more interesting is that Hydrogen will export the different parts of the kit as separate files, so you can import th...

I regularly use Ubuntu Studio on a keypen (for indoor use, not live I must add) and it performs quite well. If you use unetbootin to install it to the pendrive it can create a file (casper-rw) that will store your changes, so you can install the software you need if it is not part of the basic packa...
