Hello, recently I've been experimenting with different software simulating guitar effects; some were working (poorly), others didn't. There are at least three that I'd like to try and are included with Debian: creox, ecamegapedal and jack-rack. I've got them all installed but nothing works! My guitar is plugged in and I can hear it through the speakers, however none of the above software changes anything. I'm running kernel version 2.4.26 with the lowlatency patch and alsa (snd-cmipci). If I run (as root) "jackstart -R -d alsa", I get loading driver .. creating alsa driver ... hw:0|hw:0|1024|2|48000|0|0|nomon|swmeter|-|32bit control device hw:0 configuring for 48000Hz, period = 1024 frames, buffer = 2 periods Couldn't open hw:0 for 32bit samples trying 24bit instead Couldn't open hw:0 for 24bit samples trying 16bit instead Couldn't open hw:0 for 32bit samples trying 24bit instead Couldn't open hw:0 for 24bit samples trying 16bit instead At least it starts, which it refused to do before I applied the patch to the kernel. Besides, jack-rack starts as well, indicating that jackd is running. But then, nothing happens! Does anyone have any suggestions?
