BOSS GT-8 Guitar Effects Processor as audio interface with Mac? |

Is it possible to use a BOSS GT-8 Guitar Effects Processor as an audio interface with a Mac which uses the Core Audio driver?
I have read that ASIO, for example, is aimed at bypassing the Windows system and that Mac needs no such assistance.
The digital output from the GT-8 is EIAJ CP1201, S/P DIF phono, but I see adaptors to USB are available.
Thanks, Mike

JamKazam Client:
recorded audio - open a recording
I have in my "Windows 10" folder
% UserProfile% \ Music \ JamKazam \ Recordings \ d568c781-1624-4a35-8262-8e806b2fc74a
all files deleted by hand,
since it was already over 2 GB and I don’t need it anymore.
The corresponding, correct message is:
"The recording is missing all tracks".
Yeah - That is right, but how can I remove these red "zombie" lines
in the "open a recording" window?
Now I have these red "zombie" file ads in "Recordings".
How do I get this away?
See the screenshot.
Thanks for your help.

23rd June - new upgrade |

I received an email message about a new upgrade - and see a post identifying the changes in the forums.
The post message says that ALL USERS MUST UPGRADE
... but provides no instructions on how to do so. I dont see a ‘upgrade’ option in any of the menus (as you do with other apps). Do we manually uninstall and re-download? .... there are lots of musicians out here - not so many IT specialists
Thanks

I hagot my focusrite interface to work and it's great fun. It really works. I hope this lasts forever. I only have one problem and it's a small one-when playing with my friend, I can only see one of his two tracks at my end. I can see his electric guitar track, but not his microphone. He has the same problem at his end. At my end I can see both my tracks. Can anyone suggest a way to fix this?
Thanks for any help.

Hi! I'm trying to get my kiddo up and running on this for voice lessons and I'm running into some trouble.
When I am using a web browser our headphones are recognized.
When I use the app, they are not.
Brand new Windows 10 laptop (purchased just for this - ha ha); plugged direct to modem via ethernet cable; headphones (with mic) plugged directly into the laptop.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?

The Jamkazam client has quit working on my Windows 10 64bit machine.
It was working before but now it either just hangs on white screen or I get the following error message then it crashes:
An audio driver is preventing JamKazam from processing audio. Please move any USB-connected audio gear to a different USB port,
or reinstall any drivers for your audio gear. When done, restart the JamKazam application.
(Could not initialize PortAudio library: Internal PortAudio error)
Anyone else getting this error? I have tried moving to a different USB port. Installed the latest Asio driver for my interface.
Tried changing clock rate, neither 44.1 nor 48 kHz works
I am using a Behringer XR18 audio interface. Windows 10 64bit
Any suggestions? Getting very frustrated with Jamakzam. It was working, now I can't even open it.

Hi
I have used JK since March, after the usual set up glitches (mostly self inflicted) the system runs very well I am able to connect and play with friends 70 to 80 miles away (in UK) with session latency of around 20 milliseconds, this gives an easy feel to playing, feels comfortable. We play with a drummer from Florida then session latency 68 to 80 milliseconds, this is noticeable. In trying to lower latency as much as possible I have noticed that when a session I am in is recorded my track shows as stereo when downloaded, others tracks are mono, would this add to latency due to processing two tracks for me. My setup is Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 3rd gen, 48000 sample rate, 48 buffer size audio frame size 1ms using latest Focusrite drivers. Jamkazam is a brilliant platform and has been and still will be well used, even when our current crisis ends. Bernard.

Choosing a mic for jamkazam |

I sing with a couple of friends and they're constantly telling me to be louder. We've adjusted all kinds of settings but the problem remains. I have a SHURE SM58, (currently on a desktop stand) and find I have to almost eat the mic to get a satisfactory volume. This gets in the way of my guitar, which already bangs on my computer desk.
Can anyone recommend a mic that I can use at a greater distance? I'm willing the spend the money within reason.

Cannot get low latency with USB audio gear |

I am having difficulty figuring out the best way for me to setup my gear for playing in jamkazam sessions.
I have an acoustic piano, an old Sony Vaio PC and a newly-purchased Behringer XENYX Q802USB. I have been using Jamkazam predominantly to rehearse with an acoustic bass player who lives not far from me. My observations in this posting are based on Jamkazam sessions with the bass player, though I aspire to play with others at greater distances as well. The bass player has been exclusively using Realtek WMD so far, though he too has recently acquired a Behringer audio interface and may be confronted with similar issues.
I have been considering the following options, which I will discuss below.
- Realtek WMD
- WMD USB Audio
- ASIO4ALL
- Reaper ASIO
- Native driver
(1) Realtek WMD
I first tried the Realtek WMD after initially installing Jamkazam, before purchasing the Behringer, using my PC mic to pick up audio. My latency was low, around 5-6 ms., and my jitter was generally acceptable. Jamkazam’s only “complaint” was that I was using WMD, not ASIO. Nonetheless, I bought the Behringer hoping to be able to use a better microphone while retaining low latency, so far without success.
(2) WMD USB Audio
While Behringer recommends using ASIO4ALL for its Q802USB, many Jamkazam users have noted problems with it, so I tried using the Windows WMD USB Audio driver first. Latency increased to 20ms, making it difficult to play together. There was a tendency for our tempo to slow down during a tune , so I decided to go back to using Realtek for rehearsals.
(3) ASIO4ALL
Deciding to check out ASIO4ALL for myself, I discovered that I could not successfully use the smaller frame sizes (around 2.5 ms.), needing to set my frame size to 10 ms, to get intelligible audio. This resulted in 31 ms. latency. Inexplicably it seemed easier for us to play together when I used ASIO4ALL than WMD USB Audio. If I retry WMW USB again, would we still have problems playing together?
(4) Reaper ASIO (Rearoute ASIO)
After reading an excellent Jamkazam forum posting by marhdeth ( https://forum.jamkazam.com/printthread.php?tid=537 ) , I followed the recommendation, trying the Reaper DAW. Using a 2.5 ms frame size, I brought latency down in the jamkazam test to 5-6 ms. However I was not able to successfully add this gear configuration to my audio profile, failing the I/O rate and variance test. In a response to the marhdeth posting, Nick Blair reported having the same problem, and the thread does not posit a solution.
Nonetheless, this result was encouraging since I finally obtained low latency for a setup using a superior microphone connected to the Behringer. But it leaves the question of what to do about the I/O test problem.
It seems that my PC may be the culprit. I have observed that the processor utilization percentage reported by Jamkazam for my VAIO using Rearoute ASIO are considerably higher than those for the bass player using Realtek. His PC is newer than mine.
The CPU of my PC is an Intel® Core2 Duo CPU T6600 @ 2.20GHz. It has 4.0 GB DDR2 memory, with Task Manager showing 2.1G, 55%, in memory utilization without Jamkazam or Reaper running.
Is there something that I can do with my PC to pass the test? Or must I invest in a new one for the sake of Jamkazam? Obviously, I don’t want to lay out a lot of cash and then discover the purchase does not solve the problem or was unnecessary for addressing it.
(5) Native Driver
Some USB audio interface devices use an ASIO driver recommended by their manufacturer. There are suggestions on the Internet that a driver designed for a different product can be substituted for ASIO4ALL. I tried one such suggestion recommending a Behringer ASIO driver and it did not work for me. I do not think I will try something like this again without first getting approval from someone affiliated with Behringer.
Suggestions from anyone knowing how to best deal with my situation would be appreciated.

Tried connecting a Marantz MPM 2000U USB mic to Jamkazam last night. The mic did not appear as an available option on the audio gear list (all other available devices eg onboard Soundblaster ASIO did appear). Anyone had a similar issue and/or have any idea what's going on?
