why everytime i install qtractor i get the same error ?
"17:44:34.250 The audio/MIDI engine could not be started. Make sure the JACK audio server (jackd) and/or the ALSA Sequencer kernel module (snd-seq-midi) are up and running and then restart the session."
I moved to fedora 13 few days ago, and install the last qtractor 0.4.6 with yum...
In future versions dont have a way to put this running 100% after the installation ?
keep the good work []
Re: always same error...
This error message is, I think, self-explanatory :).
To run Qtractor you must have a current sane JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit) service running smooth against your preferred sound-card device AND you must have ALSA sequencer kernel module loaded (
snd-seq-midi; usually you should instruct this at default system init configuration).On every Linux system and distro, there's always one configuration step that you MUST do before ever starting jackd (the proper JACK server). That means giving real-time scheduling privileges to your login user or group. Otherwise, you can be sure that jackd won't start to run at all. Please, look after your /etc/security/limits.conf file, if you haven't already). It must have some line of the sort:
@audio - rtprio 90assuming your user belongs to the
audiogroup. You can replaceaudioby any other group name you find appropriate. The number shown,90, is also arbitrary, you'll be fine if you find any number like this, valued between 90 and 99.There could be many other issues that stops JACK to work on fresh installed system, but once you clear that early obstacles, Qtractor will just start alright ;)
Cheers
