Re: AVLinux install question

I’d say rsync is your best buddy here. You can find everything you need to know at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rsync.

Re: Cadence greyed out Device/Interface

The iRig has nothing to do with that. It simply outputs audio to the laptop’s internal sound card. So, whatever issues pop up, they are related to the latter. However, when I checked my Cadence settings, the interface was acting weird, almost like yours. I installed cadence-git from AUR ( https://au...

Re: testing kx repository on new systems

P.S. I'm thinking of testing these systems even on a new barebone that I'll soon be assembling on intel i7-8700 and UHD 630 always with firewire port ... Why 8700 and not 8700K, which gives you a significant speed boost for not so much of an extra buck? Also, it is worth considering that MoBos for ...

Re: GoboLinux

The project caught my attention a couple of years ago, when I read about it in Linux Voice (we still had that back then – as if it were decades ago :D). But I was as quick to dump the whole idea as I’d got my interest stirred. I’ve spent over seven years in the Arch ecosystem, maintaining a few AUR ...

Multilib is there so one can run 32-bit software on a 64-bit architecture. Native 32-bit is long gone in Arch.

Re: streaming the DAW "live!" with OBS ... how-to ?

OBS can use jack and it does so out of the box here (Arch). I only get ‘No property available’ if jack is stopped. You need to start jack first and then OBS (it seems the latter is not aware of the former’s status changes, so, if you start OBS first without jack running and then start jack, it will ...

Re: Firewire via PCIe Card

Great to hear it’s sorted out. It might be useful to share a link to the card’s product page or at least the make and model, just in case somebody stumbles on this thread looking for the same thing.

Re: Firewire via PCIe Card

I went for the 2x400 port version of that Startech card. Budget is a bit stretched. I’ve taken a look at the 2-port options, and if you selected this: https://www.startech.com/uk/Cards-Adapters/FireWire/2-Port-1394a-PCI-Express-FireWire-Card~PEX1394A2V , please note that it doesn’t have a Texas Ins...

Re: Firewire via PCIe Card

Using multiple cards to extend your inputs is always tricky because of syncing issues. Perhaps buying an interface that provides the required amount of inputs/outputs is the safest bet here. I’ve never tried to use two interfaces at once, but I know it’s a regular can of worms to open.

Re: Firewire via PCIe Card

As usual with FireWire audio, the chipset is crucial, irrespective of the operating system. Stay away from anything VIA, they are not suitable for audio purposes. Texas Instruments are generally said to work, as well as LSI/Agere, but I would research the actual model before buying. I’m using this: ...

Re: Help in OBS and ardour 5.12 using together?

Hi Aquarious12! I’m not an OBS user, but I’ve been an Arch user for long and I thought I should give it a try, see if I could solve your problem. So here goes. For what it’s worth, I think you should try Jack instead of plain ALSA. For the one thing, OBS works with it out of the box and, since Jack ...

I'll wait for it to be fixed in the git. none of these are building that's why I grabbed the git without using PKGBUILD The last PKGBUILD linked in the post below built just fine here with the commit appended. Not only did it build, but the drum editor was also fully functional :mrgreen:! I cannot ...

Just append #commit=4547301 to your source string:

Code: Select all

source=("$pkgname"::'git+https://github.com/muse-sequencer/muse.git#commit=4547301')
