[linux-audio-user] Audacity now works with JACK

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello all,

I've been trying out the newly improved JACK support in Audacity and 
can confirm that it does work. If other people could give this some 
testing I'm sure it would help solidify the feature. Please consider 
joining the audacity-devel list and sending feedback.

To build Audacity with JACK support you need to do this:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/audacity login 

(hit the enter key when it asks for a password)

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/audacity co 
audacity

(the above is all one line)

cd audacity

./configure --with-portaudio=v19 --without-portmixer

(edit src/Makefile and add this to the end of the LIBS line if it's 
not there):

-lasound -ljack

Then make and make install as usual. Start JACK, start Audacity and 
you should have a JACK option in Preferences under Audio I/O. You may 
need to disable the VU meters to get reliable playback on a slow 
machine - that option is on each meter's drop-down menu. 

Cheers

Daniel
