evils | Failed to restart pipewire.service: Unit pipewire.service is masked. | 18:04:03 |
Minijackson | systemctl --user restart 'pipewire*' should do the trick | 18:04:08 |

Failed to restart pipewire.service: Unit pipewire.service is masked. yeah, it's a user service, not a system service | 18:04:37 |
evils | easyeffects still reports 48kHz sample rate | 18:05:34 |
Minijackson | In reply to @evils:nixos.dev i somewhat suspect it's up to users of a sink to request a sample rate
as the inverse is the case (if i play a high sample rate file, pw-top shows it as high sample rate) I think it's like gstreamer, where the sample rate may be negotiated between clients | 18:05:57 |
evils | ardour also gets 48kHz, and i can't configure the sample rate in that, it's up to jack, and qjackctl is already set to 192kHz
it does jack shit (pardon the pun) | 18:06:59 |
Minijackson | I started carla with PIPEWIRE_LATENCY=256/192000 | 18:09:05 |
Minijackson | pw-top reports that it is using that buffer size and bitrate, but Carla itself reports a buffersize of 64 and 48kHz x) | 18:09:37 |
evils | hmm | 18:10:34 |
Minijackson | pipewire-jack might need some configuration itself | 18:10:58 |
evils | easyeffects is indeed using the quant and rate i set, but its source and sink's format are F32p 2 48000 | 18:11:14 |
evils | * easyeffects is indeed using the quant and rate i set, but its source and sink's format are F32P 2 48000 | 18:11:19 |
evils | * according to pw-top: easyeffects is indeed using the quant and rate i set, but its source and sink's format are F32P 2 48000 | 18:11:35 |
Minijackson | https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/wikis/Config-JACK hmm | 18:17:19 |
evils | hmm, either this doesn't do anything, or pipewire doesn't accept quoted values
"pipewire/jack.conf.d/jack.conf".source = json.generate "jack.conf" {
jack.properties.node.latency = "128/192000";
};

evils | 18ms round trip time vs my interface's input monitoring | 19:21:14 |
evils | that's with 128/192000 with PIPEWIRE_LATENCY=512/192000 easyeffects i get 21.6ms 4096/192000 gets me 36.5ms 4096/48000 gets me 35.8ms... and 32/192000 gets me 17.9ms | 19:55:33 |
evils | so it does have an effect | 19:55:45 |
evils |  Download IMG_20230614_215928.jpg | 20:02:31 |
evils | that's with 32/192000 and an effect running, i think it's running out of buffer and returning 0 xD | 20:03:27 |

in my personal config, I have set:
{
environment.pathsToLink = ["/share/soundfonts"];
environment.variables = {
DSSI_PATH = lib.mkForce "$HOME/.dssi:$HOME/.nix-profile/lib/dssi:/run/current-system/sw/lib/dssi:/etc/profiles/per-user/$USER/lib/dssi";
LADSPA_PATH = lib.mkForce "$HOME/.ladspa:$HOME/.nix-profile/lib/ladspa:/run/current-system/sw/lib/ladspa:/etc/profiles/per-user/$USER/lib/ladspa";

}
okay i tried this now. no difference. ardour still cannot find any plugins | 11:22:28 |
Minijackson | hmmm | 11:23:53 |
Minijackson | just checked in my Ardour settings, and it does seem like Ardour doesn't respect this env variable | 11:24:09 |
Minijackson | can you go into "Edit > Preferences > Plugins > VST" and see / edit the path? | 11:24:33 |
Tamara (dm me on @tammeyy:winter-cottage.eu please) | In reply to @Minijackson:matrix.org can you go into "Edit > Preferences > Plugins > VST" and see / edit the path? oh yeah. i can do that. and now it finds my problems | 11:28:40 |

Tamara (dm me on @tammeyy:winter-cottage.eu please) | i see nothing regarding envs in the nix config https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/audio/ardour/default.nix | 11:29:37 |
Minijackson | In reply to @tamtaram:chat.heizhaus.org i see nothing regarding envs in the nix config https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/applications/audio/ardour/default.nix should there be? | 11:30:20 |
Tamara (dm me on @tammeyy:winter-cottage.eu please) | In reply to @Minijackson:matrix.org should there be? do you think it's acceptable that if i install ardour and lv2 plugins as a package, that ardour then ignores their existence? | 11:31:13 |
