Can there be too many DAW's?
So much to choose from... currently, I settled for Qtractor and Reaper. Lean & clean. And both can do the job. Why try a new one...

Re: MIDI not working after Linux update?
Might be... when I launch Cockos Reaper through WINE, I see this:
...which normally listed 2 of my MIDI appliances.
Plus 15 MIDI Through Ports.
If I want to use my MIDI Keyboard, I have to click ENABLE Midi Through-0 in Reaper.
Code: Select all
<device not found> VKB,
<device not found> VKB,
Plus 15 MIDI Through Ports.
If I want to use my MIDI Keyboard, I have to click ENABLE Midi Through-0 in Reaper.

Re: MIDI not working after Linux update?
Update: I can get my MIDI keyboard to work.I need to do this: ENABLE 'Midi Through Port-0'.
Why does it suddenly listen on 'Midi Through Port-0' ? and I need to enable it in every application. Very strange....

MIDI not working after Linux update?
Hello everyone, A few days ago, I did a linux update (KXstudio) through Synaptic package manager. I am not sure what has caused it, but I updated countless packages, about 160MB of them. I don't really check which are updated, and assume it will work as it always does. Untill yesterday. I switched o...

Re: Optimizing for JACK
I tried a few things, not sure if they are of any help.
I only get Xruns when the CPU is set to "Ondemand". Switching to 3.2Ghz (or performance) solves it for me. That's the max of my CPU. Now I rarely get any Xruns. Unless I wire/looping something incorrectly in JACK.

Re: Qtractor: close a plugin, crash?
Today I captured an error message (by chance) when closing a plugin (i.e. I click it out of view):
Not sure if it helps... or if it has anything to do with it.
Code: Select all

[Solved] Questions about decriptions
I mainly use Synaptic as package manager. I see a couple terms which I don't understand what they mean... These are: 1. Dummy. (It's in parentheses behind a description of the software) 2. Demo ? I am not really sure? does it mean that it doesn't fully function or something? Example: synthv1-lv2 = o...

Re: New Audiophile 2496 Install... No Audio Anywhere!

Edit: nevermind, I read over your post indicting you do use it. Well, the way I got it to run, was to tweak a couple...

Qtractor: close a plugin, crash?
I've been enyoing making music with Qtractor, but I got one issue that prevents a smooth workflow. When I close a plugin I added, let's say a synthesizer, doesn't matter what plugin, I open the plugin to tweak it, and then I close the plugin (x) it crashes Qtractor. It happens sporadically, and I am...

Re: Qtractor + Rakarrack = feedback?
Unchecking "Auto Monitor" on the mixer bus fixed it! (F6 shortcut) works great now
Thanks!
