Is there a guide somewhere that explains how to setup a system with OSS and JACK? Do I even need JACK in FreeBSD? If there isn't a guide, I'm willing to write one, but first I would need some help in understanding how it works (I'm no computer scientist or sysadmin, so I don't think I can understand very low-level stuff, just a bit lower than regular user-level).The Forbes Home editorial team is independent and objective. I have searched quite a bit, read the OSS manual, watched meka's videos, read his blog, but they are a step ahead, they deal with RT and sample jitters, not the basic setup, which is where I'm stuck. I don't see any devices or drivers where they are supposed to be in JACK. I'm a bit lost on how OSS, virtual_OSS and JACK interact. ![]() ![]() I tried both with internal soundcard and an external USB Scarlett Focusrite, with similar results: audio from Firefox, no audio from SC. The server boots, the VU meter displays audio going out, Catia displays a System output, which SuperCollider is connected to, but no sound goes through the headphones. I do get sound from from some apps (Firefox), but I cannot seem to get the sound out from SuperCollider. I removed PipeWire, and installed both *OSS. I tried installing it in FreeBSD but didn't manage to make it work. In Linux I use PipeWire and everything seems to work fine. SuperCollider's server needs JACK to be running in the background. ![]() These include, among others, using SuperCollider. I'm running into some problems to setup a proper system for my needs. I'm new to FreeBSD, willing to move away from my current Linux (Arch) system.
