Linux

I recently switched my Roland UA25EX soundcard to 96,000 sample rate and now all my saved projects are playing back and recording an extremely speedy tempos. I hope i didn't ruin all my unfinished projects by changing the sample rate to 96. What can i do to get my projects back to normal? If i record everything again, then it sounds ok (i tried it for one project that only has bass and percussion), but i really don't want to have to do that.

Hello,

Recording a track seems to be moved from it's original position to playhead position when stopped. I am running Ardour 2.8.8 (rev 7167).

I installed this manually from source with 2.8.7 it was fine. Not sure what setting this can be fixed in.

Thank you in advance.

Anybody have a sound card recommend for a noob? I'm running Linux, Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. I'm new to Ardour and Linux and have hit the limits of my on-board sound chip. I read in a different post a recommend for the M-Audio Delta 1010, but that's more than I'm ready to spend on a first card. Thoughts on the Delta 44 or 66? I don't have any specific uses in mind yet, but would like as much flexibility as possible.

I've got a fresh install of Ubuntu Studio 10.04 as a dual boot on my 21.5" iMac. Things seem to work fine except for the faders. The audio level does not change when I move the faders until it gets to -inf and then it mutes as expected. I've been using Ardour for many years now usually with a pc and a delta 1010. This is just the factory iMac soundcard. I've never had any issue like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am not a power musician/editor type. I just need to edit a podcast and work on my film soundtracks for my experimental short films. Isn't there a way to ru Ardour without adding Jack into the mix? Other software does fine without Jack, namely Audacity. I just want to edit audio. I do no Midi, etc. I know this app is huge and way over the top for editing what I want to do but Audacity is first, ugly and second, it makes me throw my hands up in the air it's so foreign compared to editing with my Windows apps I am forced to still use, like Vegas/Sound Forge, Adobe Soundbooth, etc.

hello,
i have regular xrun on my computer when i use ardour. I think it's a problem on my hard disk (i use a western digital velociraptor)... when i do "lspci -v" i have this (the bios configure in raid):

Hello,

I am running Ardour 2.8.7 and it seem that the "m" for mute button on the tracks does not work. Although it does work from the mixer window. The "s" for solo works fine. Might be a code issue there. Has anyone seen this before. I doubt it's a setting.

Hey!

I have a terrible behaviour of Ardour: Whenever I want to bounce a certain region (or a range where this region is inside), Ardour simply kills itself.

I am running Ardour 2.8.2 on Puredyne Linux with JACK 0.3.4. It is working great. I would like to keep it that way.

I have some other OSs in VirtualBox virtual machines that I would like to use to test other audio software. The problem is that VirtualBox does not support JACK. No matter how well everything is working inside the VM I can't hear anything.

VirtualBox does support PulseAudio. How large of a risk am I taking if I install PulseAudio in Puredyne? What are my odds of breaking my perfectly good Puredyne/JACK/Ardour setup?
