Re: [chuck-users] WvOut sample size (????????? ????????)
Thank you Michael Heuer, for your reply. I have already installed jackd and QJackCtl, but I am not so happy with it. It is much easer to work with ChucK compiled to use alsa and just start one single program (* chuck) than to wary about starting jackd, controlling it... Very likely I am missing something about jack but I have never made it to work smoothly. There were always some troubles with applications that utilize sound card when I run jack server, so I gave up. On the other hand, I don't understand why ChucK can not use sound card as any other application on my computer. For example: command line mp3 player mpg321 can play a mp3-file simultaneously with other programs. I can start several mpg321 commands from terminal and there will be no complains about hardware device being used. The same is with other audio/video players on my computer. None of them requires exclusively access to sound card hardware, and they all can cooperate smoothly. I would like very much if ChucK could do so. Vitalije
Hello Vitalije. You can compile ChucK with 'make linux-pulse' to use the PulseAudio server. That will allow you to use other audio applications at the same time. You are right that jackd is not as easy to work with as alsa, but it is very useful when you want to send sound from one application to another. It is powerful in the right situation.

Given the ease-of-use as far as running chuck alongside other audio
software, ChucK's PulseAudio build (make linux-pulse) is the recommended
configuration for day-to-day use.
As far as Linux audio + Jack in general, Planet CCRMA is a layer over
Fedora/CentOS that mostly replicates the Linux environment used at Stanford
CCRMA (which is used for most of our audio heavy lifting, network
streaming, ambisonics, wavefield, etc.). I can't comment specifically on
using ChucK + Ardour in tandem but I would be surprised if it doesn't work
well enough. Moreover, Jack is the preferred audio engine for CCRMA's Linux
environment, so you shouldn't have to worry about that being a second class
citizen. More info:
