![]() ![]() ALSA is a generic sound driver that communicates directly with your sound device/hardware (except for Firewire audio interface which are handled by FFADO). Unless with some configuration you will not be able to listen to your Linux default music player and other players unless JACK is properly configured to accept PulseAudio streams.ĭo not confuse with the differences between ALSA, PulseAudio and JACK or even FFADO. When you start Ardour and JACK the PulseAudio will shutdown itself. Second, Ubuntu runs on PulseAudio sound server by default which is essentially the reason why you will be able play music by default. ![]() This implies that whenever Ardour is running, it connects to JACK that will dedicate a substantial amount of computer system resources for optimal operation. During installation of Ardour, you already configured JACK to operate in real time as needed. The result is that during actual multitrack recording session, your tracks will begin to slow down and experience delay/latency or lag. Without JACK, no dedicated resources (memory and CPU) in real time that can be utilized by Ardour. ![]() Low latency is important for professional music production and JACK is the tool to do this. This software utilizes JACK, an audio connection kit which is essentially a sound server that you can use to record with as much as low latency as possible. Importance of JACK sound serverįirst, you need to know a few important things before you start doing recording, mixing and mastering projects with Ardour. Two topics will be discussed namely the role of JACK in Ardour and knowing the basics of audio routing. This tutorial will help you to get started with Ardour in Linux. ![]()
