[ardour-users] RE: MIDI Trouble

This is my first posting so if I am not following anything properly or in
the best way please feel free to correct me so I can do it right. I am
responding to a message below where I had similar problems with midi. Just
to put in my 2 cents I am using both a USB soundcard and USB midi and I have
to boot up my system (agnula) with the midi unplugged just until it is
booted so that jack will work properly. I am guessing it is the order of the
soundcards being configured though I haven't quite figured out how to fix
that when both are USB based. If I just have the midi unplugged until
boot-up it is fine. Just thought I would mention that. I don't think it is
related to Ardour so much as the system itself and Jack finding which
soundcard to use.
By the way, I am now beginning to record more consistently with Ardour and
was wondering if there were any 'demo' recordings available to download? I
am curious to hear what others are creating with it.

I actually got Ardour to launch..BUT when I tried to create a new
session, it crashed.
Still, a small step.

Ok, sorry again. I read to fast and didn't pay attention...
When I start ardour from Contents/Resources/bin/, ardour starts up.
Then I give the session a name and as soon as I click on the create
button, it closes down.
Here's the output from the terminal.
<...>

If instead I click on cancel on ardour first prompt, I get this message:

was not fast enough. You can save the session and/or try to reconnect
to JACK.
and the output from the terminal:

and Jack is still running.

Okay an update:
(In case anyone is interested)
I launched Ardour and actually got a session running
WITH only the internal audio.
My M-Box and my Motu 2408mk3 just won't work at all.
The only way to even launch the program is from contents/resources/bin.
I really, REALLY want this program to work for me.

Hi all,
maybe someone can give me a hint what I am doing wrong?
I still have problems connecting a Behringer BCF2000 to ardour
See: http://ardour.org/manual/using_a_bcf2000
* running ardour on "64Studio" (a debian distribution geared at multimedia
on AMD64 machines)
* now using ardour 0.99 compiled from source
* updated the firmware of the BCF2000 to V1.10
Basically, if I just fire up ardour, I can't set up the necessary midi
connections.
qjackctl doesen't establish the connecttion after I click on "connect". When
trying
aconnect, I get a message "Resource temporarily unavailable" (see details
below)
/But/, if I manage to have the midi ports of the BCF2000 beeing used by
another application
/when I start up ardour/, I can establish the necessary connections. After
this the
BCF2000 works as expected (can control ardour via BCF2000 and get any
parameter feedback)!
any hints, pointers or help greatly appreciated!
