Grayson, 1. Sorry, I have not used any firewire audio devices at all.
2. What are you questions? I might be able to help in this regard. Here are two sites that you've probably already seen that might be of some use depending on your proficiency level. http://linux-sound.org/knowing-jack.html http://jackaudio.org/faq Generally you'll want to use qjackctl to configure/run jack, at least to start out with. Most often you'll have to spend some time finagling the settings to get your particular sound card to work without xruns (dropped audio packets) and with a nice low latency. You'll want to set your input and output devices, specify the number of channels if all channels do not show up automatically, which they have never done for me (but it's been a while since I've upgraded my studio machine). Select "Realtime" if you want realtime support, which you probably do if you are using jack. Make sure your sample rate matches the sample rate of your sound card, this can be a big hangup and lead to bad audio and xruns. The two main values you'll probably want to play with will be the frames/period and periods/buffer. Try to get your latency as low as you can, but make sure you do not get xruns. Then use the "Connection Kit" (button labeled "Connect") to wire your inputs/outputs around as you like, starting jack aware applications should cause new capture and playback interfaces to appear. That's about as much of a generic high level overview as I can think to give without hearing explicit questions, I hope that helps. -Adam On Fri, Mar 27, 2009 at 11:43 AM, Grayson Shelton <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > I posted this note a while ago and never heard anything back..
