I have downloaded the tarball to Ubuntu Studio 20.04 (using the low-latency kernel) will will be experimenting with it. I will be using a PerSonus 24c interface with a Dell T7600 2.4 Ghz Xeon CPU, 16GB, connected to my Comcast router via a GigE connection. The T7600 is an older (2015) Dell scientific workstation that seems to be significantly faster than my desktop which is an old Supermicro X7DAE dual quad core 2 Ghz Xeon.
1. Expand the file change to the directory
2. Run the app by running ./run.sh
3. You can run with elevated realtime privilege which gives for steadier IO rate by modifying the run command to
sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$APP_DIR/QtLibs:$APP_DIR/libs:$APP_DIR/QtPlugins:$APP_DIR/Libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH=$APP_DIR/QtPlugins/plugins ./JamKazam -rf
There is a FreeBSD firewall between my home network and the Comcast router (Comcast's idea of a firewall is to block protocols that could cause legal problems, primarily torrent); I may have to bypass that. I have clocked 84 MB/sec down, 6MB/sec up using dslreports.com. The FreeBSD firewall has a 100MB/sec interface to Comcast and I'll probably have to upgrade that, the original router I got from Comcast only supported 100MB/sec.
The PC dual-boots Ubuntu Studio or MS Windows 10 Pro, so I'll be able to compare performance, I think.
For other users: I downloaded the tarball into the Engrampa library manager which comes standard with Ubuntu Studio which was a download option in Firefox and which opened the tarball without problems. I assume that the app is standard with Ubuntu, not just Studio. I didn't try to download it and then unpack it.
I have quite a bit of experience with UN*X going back to 1985 (have run my home system on some form of UN*X since 1985) but have had limited experience with LINUX. I do have quite a bit of experience installing packages on various systems and working with developers on problems, so I hope to be as helpful as possible in getting this package to work on as many platforms as possible.
My primary instrument is a Conn 12M baritone sax and I'm interested in blues/jazz/rock. I've mostly played with pick-up bands at local blues jams with one pro gig with a local funk band in their horn section.
Thank you!
