Re: External USB microphone stuck at 192000
If it works, it works. I would think the 1024 buffer is helping, which I would consider very big. I notice the Yakoman is capture only : ALSA: Cannot open PCM device alsa_pcm for playback. Falling back to capture-only mode Add to that a fixed 192 kHz sample rate and there is potential for it going w...

Re: External USB microphone stuck at 192000
The received wisdom is that you're doing it the 'wrong' way. :) I can't understand why you want to do it this way -- one interface for input and one for output, but you do so ... If I understand correctly you have a different input and output selected in QjackCtl > Settings > Advanced ? That's only ...

Re: Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen or a good alternative?
Yes, the evidence suggests a ground loop. Plugging monitors into my phone - no hissing The phone is not grounded, so there is only one path to ground -- through the monitors. There is no hissing whatsoever on the headphones, just the monitors. And this tells you it's not the interface or bus power. ...

Re: Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen or a good alternative?
That could be a ground loop. Using the laptop on its battery would take ground out of the equation. Even a laptop plugged into its power pack doesn't always have a good path to ground. Macs don't for example. A ground loop happens when there are two or more paths to ground. In your case one path to ...

Re: Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen or a good alternative?
Now I have the good old 2i2 2nd gen, but it's causing hiss in my studio monitors and I've narrowed down the cause to USB bus power. How did you narrow it down? I don't see how an independent power supply would make any difference. When you say 'hiss' do you mean white noise? Or is it more of a 'hum...

Re: Introducing the New RME Fireface UCX II
Totalmix FX is therefore needed because actually all the actions are controlled through it. With the HDSP 9632 control of the functionality of the card, like whether SPDIF is optical or coaxial, is done through another app -- hdspconf . It's a simple app with radio buttons for features like sync, s...

Re: Introducing the New RME Fireface UCX II
So they don't want to show the reason for that to their competitors by means of the required opensource kernel module. Does that argument hang together? They could produce a proprietary kernel module, like Nvidia do if I understand correctly. On the RME forum the response from the CEO Matthias Cars...

Re: advice for nvidia card sufferer
The display resolution is all wrong, but usable enough for testing and writing pleas for help. Have you established that this only happens with the RT kernel? Does Nvidia proprietary drivers + low latency kernel result in the correct resolution? I had an Nvidia card and I remember that after instal...

Re: Transcribing/Rhythm course or software
I tried teoria and found it good. At first I wondered why the developer had chosen the sound he had, then I realised it needs to be a sustained sound so that you can hear rests. Syncopation is an option. Before you get to that though I would aim for 100% on the simpler exercises, then move on. I hav...

Re: Transcribing/Rhythm course or software
I searched 'rhythmic dictation' and came up with this : https://www.teoria.com/en/exercises/rd4.php I haven't tried it but it looks like the sort of thing you're after. What is it you're finding difficult writing down? I would guess it's syncopation. Syncopated 16th notes can be challenging to write...

Re: Libre Music Challenge #11 : Happy Birthday Edition !
Thanks guys. It's great that you liked my submission and I appreciate the positive feedback. I didn't use the dog toy sample though, so I'm not due the 15% bonus. Taking this into account MyLoFy came first and I came second, which is fine with me as your kind comments are what I appreciate. We all w...

Re: chord showcasing swiss-knife songs?
I'm glad to hear that you've recovered from the surgery you had. If I remember correctly you were puzzled by the viidim chord. You've noticed that there are few (no) songs that use it. This might help, but if it confuses things further, ignore it and come back to it later : It's called functional ha...

Re: LNXMuSCNS video meetings on Saturday / 6pm GMT / 8pm CEST / 14.00 EDT
One thing that came up was that I thought there was a bug in Ardour 6.7. I left Ardour open overnight and in the morning the DSP load was 100%, there were tons of xruns reported, and my computer locked up. This has been fixed in Ardour 6.8. In the release notes there is a mention of a memory leak be...
