@jnyce695: No problem, but I have about 10 videos with Ardour. I'll send you a play list to make sure you've seen them all.

would you care to explain how JACK works and how youve set it up

im considering switching to Linux to make music

[metalx1000]

@TheDadsr: Jackd is very simple, but it can seem difficult at first. Basically it is software that allows all you music programs to be linked together. It's like a mix board where you can connect the output from one program to another. It also is used to connect midi out devices/programs to midi inputs of other midi devices/programs. Jackd will also keep some programs in sync. So, if you have ardour running and hydrogen, if you click play in one, they will both play and keep in sync.

@TheDadsr: Jackd can be started by running "Jack Control", which is a GUI interface for jackd, and click the "Start" button.

If you can't start it that way, let me know.

I've come from 8 years of working with Windows and Nuendo to Linux and Ardour. It's a totally different world! The Linux studio work flow reminds me of the 80's recording studios working with MIDI. Everything had to work together. In Windows everything is either in one program or through rewire. The whole Linux studio with Jack is basically all modular. It's a very interesting work flow, that I am still getting used to.
