Guitarix as a plugin?

I am new to running my DAW (Tracktion Waveform) in Linux, I am using Ubuntu Studio 16.04. I am interested in Guitarix, but it will not run as a plug in on my system. Is there something I need to do to make that happen? Is there a guide somewhere to using this cool looking app? I am starting at groun...

Re: Ubuntu Studio on a Mac Mini?

It's been a while now and I can say that I have everything working good, to the best of my knowledge. I am running Tracktion Waveform 9, and I have a bunch of plugins, and everything seems to be running fine! I have the M-Audio Fast Track Ultra interface, it is obsolete for Windows 8/10 systems and ...

Re: Behringer uphoria um2 audio interface

I have used Behringer interfaces as well, they work just fine. And as far as I know, they provide you with a free DAW called Tracktion, and I think you get Tracktion 7 free with purchase. it's very good, and has become my DAW of choice. And there is a Linux version that works fine. But you'll probab...

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

It looks like I have success! Thanks for all the help everyone. My answer was not just as you suggested Pablo but pretty close.
I still may have an issue with the interface not being recognized but once it is, it works as it should!

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

It's all very confusing. My problem with the panning settings is in the interface itself, in its internal configuration settings. By playing with these settings in alsamixer I got the panning to work on one channel but not the other! None of the more than 128 individual sliders are identified. I am ...

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

Yes and thank you so much for your help Pablo. I am familiar with what you are saying, but what I am saying is that panning does not work in my DAW. I can have one mono track there, and my pan control does nothing when I listen with my headphones from the interface headphone jack. Everything else se...

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

Thanks, it's becoming clearer...i am keeping at it, and having some success! I have my interface working with my DAW now! But still isn't just right. I have no panning available, everything seems to be in a mono setting. JACK is working, here is my connection window...does this look right?

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

I got my system to see my interface now. I plugged it back into my working windows system and sent it a reset command and now Linux can see it. At any rate, it shows up now when I check my devices, and it'll play certain things, but my DAW cannot see it and gives me a "device not found- no chan...

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

Another update.... I have a different interface, the simpler M-Audio M-Track. It works just fine. Pretty much plug and play.... But it won't play audio from sources in my browser, but my DAW sees it. But nothing from the fast Track Ultra, I messed something up, and I suspect that script.

Re: Need some help getting my interface set up

By the way, you can see there it says "device #3 disconnected, and my interface would be #3.

Need some help getting my interface set up

Ok, I am a total newbie to Ubuntu Studio, I have it set up and running well, I am trying to get it to show my interface, and get it set up right. It seems quite daunting to me! I have two interfaces to use here, the M-Audio Fast Track Ultra and the simpler M-track. I have been working mainly with th...

Re: Ubuntu Studio on a Mac Mini?

Well, I bit the bullet tonight and I went ahead and installed Ubuntu Studio on my Mac Mini. It seems to have gone just fine, but I don't know my way around the desktop very well. And I have experienced several crashes of the DAW I prefer to use, Waveform. I don't know how to get my interface install...
