You have a rather old Hydrogen version. Current version is 1.3.0 alpha or 1.2.3 stable.

I know. But I never use Hydrogen. I installed it just now for the example. :)

Re: I can't get Rosegarden to see Hydrogen

If I were you I'd want to sequence Hydrogen with a Midi sequencer and then record it's audio output with a DAW. Most DAW's (like Qtractor) can record audio and are also Midi sequencers. Indeed. With Jack Transport you can synchronize Hydrogen to your DAW. If you program the beats in Hydrogen itself...

Re: I can't get Rosegarden to see Hydrogen

Here's how I did a quick recording of some Hydrogen drum audio with Qtractor. Example: Open Qtractor and Hydrogen. Make audio connections (I didn't use Midi). You can do this via Qjackctl or via Qtractor's Connections window: "View > Windows > Connections (F8)". They are essentially the sa...

And the last two screenshots. QjackCtl Connections 20240309 ALSA.png Rosegarden's MIDI Devices 20240309.png From the screenie of Qjackctl's Connections window I can see in the third tab 'Alsa Midi' (that tab is simply called "Alsa", I think this changed in the most recent version) that Ro...

Re: Getting a good (guitar) sound across multiple listening devices. Advice?

I don't know if you use an physical amp and a microphone to record your (electric?) guitar but getting the sound as good on the recording as it sounds live is a known problem/frustration of producers. See this video by Spectre Sound Studios on it, may not be your style of music but it might help: h...

Re: I can't get Rosegarden to see Hydrogen

That's entirely possible. I tried to drag a connection for midi but it wouldn't let me do it for some reason. I'm probably missing something as I'm a total noob when it comes to DAW software. Instead of Qjackctl's 'Patchbay' window, could you use and post a screenie of Qjackctl's 'Connect' window? ...

Re: I can't get Rosegarden to see Hydrogen

I probably need better reading glasses, but in the screenshot of Qjackctl I can't see any Midi connection from Hydrogen to Rosegarden... You want to let Rosegarden control Hydrogen via Midi, aren't you? That's entirely possible. I tried to drag a connection for midi but it wouldn't let me do it for...

Re: What's your workflow?

What do y'all use to "save" your work: do you record the audio or the Midi (notes)? Some of us even use music notation software and export it as Midi. What software/DAW do you use?

Re: What are your favorite GUI-based Pipewire tools?

I've been putting together my own personal GUI Front End Pipewire tool set. I'm curious what tools you are using and for what reasons. For example, I am starting to use the following tools: PavuControl -- For Sound Card Setup Wireplumber -- It's the default, so I want to keep it. :) Qpwgraph -- Gra...

Re: Qtractor: start/stop Drum machine?

the MIDI Start/Stop/SPP events are NOT MIDI channel messages: they apply to the system they are sent/received as a whole. so it's down to your target device; you already notice the start/stop buttons get lit so the messages are being received alright but no reacted upon... so, I suppose qtractor is...
