[Fedora-music-list] Help with StudioControls – Studio Set Up Utility

[bruce]

Hi, I’ve just installed fedora jam on my spare laptop. I’ve been using
windows for all my music, and I want to see what linux has to offer. I went
with Jam because I wouldn’t know what software to install or how to
configure it, so this seems like the place to start.


But I’m not getting anywhere using it, and the wiki doesn’t seem to have
much info.

Here is my problem: when I plug in my audio interface (I’m using GuitarPort)
I get unprocessed raw sound from my guitar in my headphones right away,
before I even start anything. (Normally I don’t hear anything until the
signal is routed through the amplifier software, but I’ve never used it in
linux before, maybe that is expected?)


I went into StudioControls -> Audio Setup -> Jack Master Setting, and I see
the following:

Jack Master Device (no USB): lists my sound card and my guitar port.

USB device that should be Master: No USB Master.


The thing is, GuitarPort *is* a USB device. No matter what I do, all I get
is raw guitar output. I feel a bit like all I’m doing is closing my eyes
and poking at it with a stick. Are there some instructions on how to set
this up?



Thanks,

bruce
