Re: How to make ADAT work ?

I can't manage to have sound in Bitwig/Reaper and even from 1820 or SSL12. If you can't make your audio interface work on your computer then you can't get the additional ADAT interface's signal, either. If your 1820 works then make sure the I/O selector on its back side is set to ADAT. One of the i...

Re: Greetings from Boston

Thanks. It works beautifully, although I'm trying to figure out the right configuration for MIDI. I'm also having to figure out why firing up JACK disables my audio chips, but that's a matter for another thread. jack and Pulseaudio use interfaces exclusively. jack can use one interface only, at lea...

Re: Plugin drumkv1 doesn't start in REAPER

Does it help when you load Carla as a plugin and then drumkv1 inside Carla, maybe with "UI bridges" activated in Carla?

Re: Qtractor recording from plugin synths doesn't work

Please, note that none of the busses in the screenshot were of my making! It was Qtractor that made them: two for each track, and the other "Masters" as well. I didn't manually add any busses. I just tried to connect the outputs from the MIDI tracks to the Audio Master In, as a last resor...

Re: Qtractor recording from plugin synths doesn't work

OK, I've just tried recording to Audacity, and still nothing gets recorded. Within Qtractor, the Audio Master Input shows all activity, but not the Audio Output, though. The MIDI Output is active, of course. Audacity now uses JACK, business as usual, but seems to get nothing as input. With "re...

Re: Qtractor recording from plugin synths doesn't work

I did contemplate this route, but I found out that Audacity simply doesn't work through JACK. I can't even bounce the MIDI tracks on to an Audio track from within Qtractor, for the same reasons. Works fine here for over 10 years. Maybe you have a version of Audacity without jack support. You can us...

Re: Qtractor recording from plugin synths doesn't work

Hi there, In spite of reading Qtractor's manual, I can't find a way to export audio from my tracks, all using internal/plugin synths. In the manual, it's claimed that in modern version of Qtractor (I'm using the latest), one wouldn't need to insert busses or anything. Still, all I get a .wav file, ...

Welcome and have fun. Fortunately a Scarlett Solo has no software controllable internals, so it should work right out of the box with Linux.

Re: Tascam US-16x08 suddenly recognized as output only

I understood that using ALSA was the simpler of the two approaches. Yes and no. There is still Pulseaudio messing around and if you don't know what that Panel is for, you might be mislead. Pulseaudio and jack use interfaces exclusively and so an interface might be missing in a Pulseaudio tool when ...

Re: Qtractor and plugin control from recorded clip doesn't work?

In Qtractor you can map a plugin's parameter without an additional MIDI bus as well.

Just use a MIDI insert send in your MIDI track and use this as MIDI input for the plugin to be controlled:

Sorry, I'm on bad behaviour here ... It solved itself, all of a sudden without me changing anything, recording through my device was working again. And now, out of the blue, it will play back but not record. Is there a way I can tell the system to look for an input again? aplay -l gives me **** Lis...

Re: Qtractor and plugin control from recorded clip doesn't work?

What filter plugin do you use? Audio filter which goes after liquidsfz. In fact, any effect plugin in the stack that you want to control via midi controller events. (I know about automation tracks, I want to avoid them) Which audio filter? There are plenty. Some can "MIDI learn", that wou...
