 Miles Dyson | Does jack and or pipewire require realtime? | 07:36:10 |
 @fractivore:cyberia.club | With sonic-pi it's easy to code up something that has artifacts. | 07:36:18 |
| Miles Dyson | The clicks happen when youtube videos play as well. | 07:36:50 |

Does jack and or pipewire require realtime? No, but anytime I try to do audio stuff using my usual stack without the realtime kernel, the audio sounds like trash in some way shape or form. It seems like the system can't keep up. | 07:37:47 |
| Miles Dyson | What is the process for installing and selecting a realtime kernel? | 07:39:08 |

The clicks happen when youtube videos play as well. IDK, could you have set the sample rate to something extreme? Can you check your CPU load using e.g. htop and see if it's related? I get clicks sometimes when I'm getting a lot of xruns, but just youtube shouldn't cause that. | 07:39:40 |
| @fractivore:cyberia.club | What's your hardware? | 07:39:50 |

I do have security.rtkit.enable = true;. I think this is all you need to do to enable the realtime kernel. | 07:40:05 |

I think this is all you need to do to enable the realtime kernel. Wait, maybe not, this just gives realtime scheduling priority to various processes.... | 07:42:33 |
| @fractivore:cyberia.club | Use musnix probably: https://github.com/musnix/musnix | 07:43:00 |

| Miles Dyson | Damn . . . audio still scratches. | 08:10:00 |
 ckie (they/them) | that memory clock looks awfully low for a modern Zen | 12:34:26 |
| ckie (they/them) | oh I guess it's cpu clock and it's sleeping | 12:37:43 |

| Miles Dyson | The audio was clicking because of a codec. | 17:10:29 |

| Miles Dyson | the SBC-XQ codec causes audio problems. | 17:27:09 |
| Miles Dyson | It is a JBL bluetooth speaker. | 17:27:40 |

| Miles Dyson | Does anyone know of a live music coding chat channel? | 02:52:16 |

the SBC-XQ codec causes audio problems. Ahh I see, glad you got it figured out. What did you do to troubleshoot it? | 03:36:08 |
| Miles Dyson | Discovered by chance. | 03:36:46 |

Ahh I see, glad you got it figured out. What did you do to troubleshoot it? I went somewhere and took the speaker with me, then when I reconnected it pulse had it muted, so I was looking at the settings and noticed it. | 03:37:47 |

Does anyone know of a live music coding chat channel? Not really, but let me know if you find one. A lot of people in here are interested in live coding (myself included, I've done some live coding shows). In my computer club, cyberia.club, some people are interested in live coding as well, we've done some demo show stuff, so you could hop over to our matrix server! | 03:38:23 |
| Miles Dyson | I still get an occasional click . . but so far only when when starting VCV rack. | 03:38:45 |

| @fractivore:cyberia.club | #musicollab:cyberia.club is the closest thing I know of. It's a dead board right now but I'd be very happy to revive it with live coding talk! Maybe we can get another demo thing going! | 03:39:37 |
