Mint is solid too

I use linux

Alas, I have been defeated. My smooth brain wasn't able to figure out linux audio. But I found another solution. My drum kit has audio pass through, so I connect my laptop via aux cable to my drum kit input and my headphones to my drum kit output. That allows me to play along with songs on my laptop. The trade off is I'm stuck with the built in drum sounds on my kit, which aren't as good as VSTs in reaper.. but at least I found a solution.

The story is much better told through Vaati's words. And his voice is very soothing to listen to.

I have a more specific use case than most ppl. I would still say mint is ready for mainstream ppl that mainly need it for all the basic needs.

Already switched my laptop to mint. It's great, except dealing with ALSA has been a nightmare.

I tried this, but when I use JACK in reaper, the audio is all messed up. I'm just gonna give up and find a different solution. Thanks for the help tho

I tried my best, but it's a no go. As I mentioned, I'm a smooth brain linux noobie... the only dmix devices I have are PCH, and a bunch of different Nvidia ones. I tried setting the device to PCH and Nvidia but nothing worked. I'm just going to find a different solution. Thanks for the help tho

Would you recommend JACK for low latency inputs and allowing me to play along to songs on YouTube? I was able to get it work with pulse audio but the latency was too high.

I'm using linux mint. And sorry, but I'm a noob wktu audio software. I'm pretty sure I already have pipewire, but I'll double check. Are you saying to try pipewire instead of qctl?

She's almost 70 now... I don't think there's anything I can say that will change her mind lol

It's really not that difficult to go through these games with minimal guide use. If you're looking to 100% them, then yes, a guide is essential to use. And you always have summoning in boss battles, and ER added npc summons too. Once you just embrace the games with an open mind , they become more enjoyable.

I agree, now how do I get my mom to quit telling me I'm going to hell?

I'm sure I would notice more issues or hiccups if I daily drove my laptop. It's just my secondary device right now, but I'm also testing/learning linux for when I switch my main desktop over.

I see. I'm just starting my linux journey, and right now, mint is working great for me. At some point I'll probably start distro hopping.

Why did you switch from mint?

I have done the chown user command and that did fix the problem. My programs are able to write to it now. Thanks for the help

Hi, I ran into a problem with reaper taking over my audio driver and I'm not able to play YouTube, or any other music, while reaper is open. I didn't have this problem in windows because I had the aiso4all driver. But doing some searching, I'm not sure that driver will work on linux. Do you have any insight as to how to fix this?

I just recently switched to mint, and so far it's been great. I will say though, I find it pretty ridiculous how many hoops I had to jump through just to get my second drive to mount on boot and for programs to maintain write permissions to it. Which is a situation that a lot of non tech savvy will deal with when switching, especially gamers.

I was able to get reaper working with yabridge and using Steven slate free sampler, thanks for the help!
