I'm new to Jack and linux music production (although I've been producing with Windows and MacOS for more than 10 years), but since Bitwig supports debian I'm trying to have a go at it.
I'm trying to set up my Roland Quad Capture audio interface with Jack following this tutorial : http://libremusicproduction.com/article ... arted-jack
Jack is starting fine with my laptop integrated sound card, or even my screen integrated thunderbolt sound card, but not with my external soundcard...
I am using QJackCtl, and first let me say that in the Jack setup the Roland sound card shows 2 entries :
hw:QUADCAPTURE
hw:QUADCAPTURE,0
I don't know why or what it means. I've tried with both and got the same error.
Then, when I hit start, after a second or two of waiting, this log message appears :

Any help appreciated or I'll just go back to Windows I guess
