Re: Ardour crashes in KXStudio 12.04.3

Thanx fer the info! Usually I set 44.1 khz....according to a conversation with a sound man-friend that's all that's needed, as far as mix down to a final cd is concerned. He's a ProTools/Windows guy, but stuff I've learned from watching him at his studio is priceless. I have never done live stuff wi...

Re: How to import mid files into Ardour?

Well folks, thank you for all your help; I super appreciate all your suggestions. I've come to the conclusion I have some kinda brain dysfunction happening, because I still can't get my setup as outlined in this thread. I've installed KXStudio exclusively to a dedicated hard drive and been messing a...

Re: Ardour crashes in KXStudio 12.04.3

Oh thank you so very much! I did the reset from the Welcome screen and now I can again run Ardour and other apps together. yay!! I noticed the reset also reset JACK... from priority "0" (I guess I must have changed it) to "85". I'm guessing that is the original default? And the l...

Re: Ardour crashes in KXStudio 12.04.3

One more note regarding "On first login to kx studio a dialogue comes up asking to reset settings. Did you force reset like it recomended for new installs?"
I don't remember doing a force reset during initial install/login.

Re: Ardour crashes in KXStudio 12.04.3

Have you changed any jack settings recently? The error seems related to jack starting with realtime but kx studio should have set this all up for you when you installed kx studio. On first login to kx studio a dialogue comes up asking to reset settings. Did you force reset like it recomended for ne...

Ardour crashes in KXStudio 12.04.3

I recently installed KXSudio from live dvd on hard drive, stand alone. I've been tearing my hair out just trying to figure out how to run a midifile through Muse then Ardour for many hours and days. I finally got the files to work (sound from sound card to pc speakers) in Muse, but still scratching ...

Re: Newbee to KXStudio and love it!!

I'm using Kickoff to launch Gparted...I rarely use terminal to launch any programs, as I feel more comfy with GUI stuff. I think KXStudio is awesome!! Photography is another hobby. I use the latest Darktable, Shotwell, and Gimp mostly. I'm thinking maybe dedicate Ubuntu Studio for my photography and...

I've been batting my brains out for weeks in Ubuntu Studio 64 bit 12.04 LTS. I'm a $$ supporter of Paul Davis's Ardour and am running A 3.5.357 After many moons I finally got to the point where I could set up jack properly to import a wav file and lay down some guitar tracks (me playing) and set up ...

Re: How to import mid files into Ardour?

[quote][/quote]I am at work right now, so can't send you the larger pictures. Do you get sound from hydrogen by loading a demo song included with hydrogen? Don't forget to connect the hydrogen outputs 1 +2 (could be out L + out R) to your system outputs 1+2 in patchage. What soundcard do you have, a...

Re: How to import mid files into Ardour?

I'm still unable to get sound, after trying your suggestion of firing up Hydrogen, etc. ... Your screenshots look like they may be helpful. Can you post a larger pic please? I can't see any detail of the pics. Sorry for bugging you if I am. One more note...I've tried using a2jmidi -e and in Jack>Set...
