Saffire pro 24 dsp, Ubuntu Studio 16.04, Jack

Post by end117 »

Hello guys

I've recently installed Ubuntu Studio 16.04 LTS after some critical system problems with Ubuntu Studio 14.04 LTS...

I've a Saffire pro 24 dsp that worked perfectly with 14.04 using qjackctl

Now, with 16.04, I'm not able anymore to start jack server

Searching around I've understand that could be a problem with the new kernel, but I didn't understand what I've to do to have back my Saffire with Jack

Can someone help me, please?

Regards
M.

If you use FFADO, please blacklist dice kernel audio module.

Do this by appending the line "blacklist snd_dice" to the end of the correct file in /lib/modprobe.d (the correct file will be the one corresponding to your kernel, which in turn can be determined by running "uname -r").
