Re: Cadence Alpha 1 released
Have only had time to appreciate some cosmetic aspects so far, having done the recently-available upgrade only last night. Ten-minute bedtime testing; haven't even listened to any music yet :oops: but ... Cadence starts minimized nicely. The icon looks good. The icon has a tool-tip showing important...

Re: Hello! New Linux fan - and I need some help :)
Quick fixes for a broken grub is something that we all ought to know, or keep a check-sheet for, but being human, we tend to think of it only when it breaks :oops: . if we have another PC handy to google on, we can usually get out of trouble. I usually have at least two versions of Linux installed o...

Re: Hello! New Linux fan - and I need some help :)
Oh fine... Your choice of Linux is your choice of Linux! :) I thought about AV Linux too. I took a look at Tango, but the distributor's site is all in French. I'd been working with Ubuntu for nearly a year with no problems except Firewire Audio, which was a nightmare. KXstudio fixed all that for me,...

Re: Hello! New Linux fan - and I need some help :)
Oh! spotted some inaccuracy above. My current kernel is not "pre-emptive" it is 2.6.38-8-lowlatency.
Hope you are making progress.

Re: Hello! New Linux fan - and I need some help :)
On a new installation, when things go really wrong, it usually is quicker and easier to start from scratch --- unless you just want to do go into technical-challenge mode. Educational, but also time-consuming. My Windows experience stops at XP, so I have no idea at all about Vista or 7 and how they ...

I tried Ubuntu Studio, but it didn't work for me somehow. so I returned to Windows. Anyway, recently I read a lot of good stuff about KX Studio, so I decided to give i...

Cheers
s/intergace/interface/ --- always easy to spot the mistakes of others, and impossible to see one's own
The firmware update function is one of the things the FFADO mixer would not do.

Re: Which 2- or 4-channel in/2-out MIDI audio interface?
I have an Echo Audiofire2 and it works fine with Ubuntu and KXStudio. When I say "works fine"... -- Before I discovered KXStudio, it was a nightmare, even with Ubuntu "Studio," getting any sort of reliability at all. Ubuntu seems to have been designed not to work with Firewire au...

Re: Reasons to not use Linux
People are saying that there is not a problem with modern kernels. Are they saying that real-time is not needed? My movement to Linux (Ubuntu) for 99.9% day-to-day computing happened some time after I bought a Firewire audio interface. The interface had been in the cupboard for other reasons, and ca...
