Some of these packages may install with others, so forgive any duplication - I wasn’t tracking when I did it last.

1) Install jack, cadence, ladish, lib64flowcanvas, lib64qtcore, lib64qtgui, qjackctl, calf, pulseaudio-module-jack.

2) Open qjackctl, Setup. My setup was as follows, yours will differ:

Interface: hw:MobilePre

Driver:Alsa

###Qjackkit Options

On Startup:

pactl set-default-sink jack_out

Then Quit qjackctl.

3) Add yourself to the audio group as shown in the video.

4) Create this script, make it executable.

#!/bin/bash
sleep 25
pulseaudio &
fi

Add the script path you created to your Startup Application preferences - enable it, close then reboot.

5) Open Cadence, Configure, Driver, make sure the devices reflect the correct input and output as seen in the video.

6) Start JACK from Cadence front page., tab over to Tools at the top, select Claudia. If Pulse and JACK are both running, you’ll see your input, PulseAudio JACK Source, PulseAudio JACK Sink and Hardware Playback. Use the video to learn how to add extras like Calf, OBS, etc to the left panel. Once added, you can start the apps in the left panel by clicking on them once, then right clicking to Start.

7) Once you have Calf, etc setup - save your Calf, OBS and Claudia configs to save yourself the hassle next time.

Teaser for upcoming announcement

Teaser

Have an upcoming announcement video coming up. Basically, changing YT channels as explained here . This video is using a technique that’s called an “ice breaker.” Actual video (when posted later this week) explains changes in the channel, me coming back to Linux Thurs and more.

Summary: Doing Linux Thurs again, my own Linux videos are coming back for Patreon members at all levels on early access - videos I make will be public after a month with each release, so Patreon members get first dibs. My old primary YT channel is being re-purposed to do other content.

Top 5 Reasons Why Linux Mint Is Better

Top 5 Reasons Why Linux Mint Is Better

Top 5 Reasons Why Linux Mint Is Better. In this video why I think Linux Mint is better. Not saying Linux Mint the best distro, I’m saying that it’s often times better than that “other” OS most people are using. I also think it’s better than some other distros out there. In future videos, I’ll be offering the same Linux distro insights on why I think the distro I’m featuring is better than its alternatives and why.

# Linux Mint is a community project. Instead of owing favors to large corporations, Linux Mint is free to take the path its developers believe is best.

# Linux Mint puts the newbie user first. No matter what development turns Linux Mint has taken over the years or who Mint has appealed to, Linux Mint has always put the newer Linux user first.

# Linux Mint is always ffine-tuningthe Mint tools and other elements of the layout. Linux Mint always seems to take what’s working best and then works to make it even better.

# Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu LTS. Being based on Ubuntu LTS (long term support) means a longer release cycle and often times, a less buggy release overall.

# Linux Mint has all the desktop environments you could want. Well, enough for most of us anyway. Cinnamon, MATE, and Xfce offer us a ton of choice.
