Re: How to install jcgui?
Configuration fails, it goes wrong here:
Now what do I do?
Code: Select all
Checking for jack >= 0.109.1 : Package "jack (>= 0.109.1)" could not be found or the found version is too old.

Re: How to install jcgui?
Nothing. The chance that you can upgrade jack to a higher version is nil. It might, however, mean that you've got Jack1 installed instead of Jack1 (jack1's version is "below zero", jack 2 is > 1.9).LinMusGuy wrote:Configuration fails, it goes wrong here:

Anyway, I wouldn't bother. Don't break a working system for a utility.

Re: How to install jcgui?
Thanks! The reason I asked this question is because I want to have at least one convolver to play with impulse responses. Now I already installed jconvolver but its hard to understand (for me at least) without a GUI. Perhaps there is another alternative?

A convolver is a program that is capable of computing the convolution of two signals. For convolution see:

Re: How to install jcgui?
Not knowing waht a convolver is I did a search in Carla and some came up:
- Impusle Convolver by Steve Harris (i.e. from the Steve Harris LADSPA plugins)
- Convolution Reverb by Cabbage Audio (from the Cabbage Plugins package)
- LV2 Convolution Stereo by Robin Gareus (?)

Re: How to install jcgui?
I've just built this from Git with the Latest Jack2. It recognised Jack2 no problem, and built successfully.
If you're not familiar with ./waf, it's easy to get going.
alex$ ./waf configure
then
alex$ ./waf
it will build, then
alex$ ./waf install (as root, so on an Ubuntu or Debian based system, you'd use Sudo. i.e. alex$ sudo ./waf install and put in your password )
That will install into /usr/local/bin.
if you want to install into /usr/bin, then add the prefix to the configure stage.
alex$ ./waf configure --prefix=/usr
(All the alex$ are my command line. The actual command comes after that.)
See the README in the jc_gui directory for these details.
Alex.
NOTE: Make sure you have all the Jack-dev files installed for your current version. It won't compile without them.

Re: How to install jcgui?
For Jack I get:
But configuration still fails. What are the Jack-dev files you are referring to?
Code: Select all
jackd -V
jackdmp version 1.9.12 tmpdir /dev/shm protocol 8

Re: How to install jcgui?
Do you have something like libjack-jackd2-0, and libjack-jackd2-dev installed?

Re: How to install jcgui?
Well - I have cjgui installed now. I had to install some other files along the way, just as you said. I will see how it works later. Thank you very much for the tips!alex stone wrote:Do you have something like libjack-jackd2-0, and libjack-jackd2-dev installed?

Re: How to install jcgui?
I am still struggling with compiling from source, but sometimes I succeed. It's more luck than wisdom.Linuxmusician01 wrote:Glad to have learned that jcgui can be compiled from source!
Is there a good book on compiling from source? I always prefer to know what I am doing...
