--- APOLOGY
I want to apologize for all the technical issues with this video.
I wanted to try using screen recording in 1440p and despite brief testing looking good, it has proven to result in an absolutely abysmal frame rate of the screen capture, as well as audio corruption in the last part of this video.
I have realized the full extent of the problem is even worse than I initially thought very late in the production. I decided to finish this video and publish it in the hope if it may be useful regardless, and also to not feel like I have completely wasted my effort and time making this.

Now go, make some music!
Hello! I am very very happy to see that you're still there.
Hey! Still alive :D
Thanks for the showcase unfa!
Coincidentally I used BYOD in one of my project exactly the same way as you did in the showcase - sine wave feed through multiple distortion units. We probably know it as the "Mick Gordon DOOM instrument" haha. It was fun fooling around and trying all sort of units and chaining them together within BYOD and get interesting results - the possibility is endless.
Never try it as a amp/cab simulator like the rest of the comment section as of writing, I should pick some amp IRs and shove them into BYOD one day!
Thanks! Yeah, BYOD seems like a lot of fun, and a possibility to create very complex distortion effects and have them neatly bottled up in a single plug-in preset :)
hello I want to ask. Previously, thank you for the tutorial on your CZcams video, it's very helpful. I have an Audience ID44 USB3 Audio Interface, a Behringer UMC 1820 USB2, and a Firewire Studio PCI X Firewire. I can't run the three audio interfaces simultaneously with ubuntu studio and qjack. can you help me? thanks
with alsa not working
Hey! To use multiple audio interfaces together you'll need to either use JACK or PipeWire.
In JACK you need to pick one as your primary interface, and then you can use alsa_in and alsa_out programs to use the ALSA driver to expose additional audio devices to JACK. alsa_in allows capture and alsa_out allows playback. Then you'll be able to capture from all I/Fs at once etc. But be aware that this is inherently flawed for low-latency audio, as each interface has it's own clock and this means the signal timing can drift. I tried recording a drum kit like this once and the tracks did not sync up.
Alternative is to use PipeWire with pipewire-jack to make JACK apps utilize it instead. PW will handle all devices for you so no need to manually run alsa_in or alsa_out, but the same sync issue may still occur.
If you need more help I recommend joining my community chat on Rocket.Chat or Discord: chat.unfa.xyz
Hey @unfa. That distortion plugin looks wicked. I cannot install it though. How did you get it installed? Being on EndeavourOS I tried the AUR package but it missed a download link. So I compiled the source code and Ardour finds it but even I can select it fails to start from within Ardour. Is there any other option? Have you got a compiled package that you could share? Cheers!
Hey! I linked two download links to official binaries from CHOW. Did you try these?
@@unfa00 well - the linux download is a debian package so i went for the source code that is linked from that web page. But looking into it more closely today I compiled the main branch. Checking out the latest release branch, compiled and now it works. All solved. My bad - sorry to bother you .... Gonna try a few things with BYOD later. Awesome to follow your videos always to get inspired. Cheers mate!
hi ulfa. I want to ask again. yesterday was successful piperwire thank you. now I want to ask how to netjack linux to windows 11? thanks very much
I would try SonoBus:
www.sonobus.net/
@@unfa00 how to use netjacks? in qjackctl there are no netone or net drivers
Can you test zynthian for live audio purpouse?
Well, I don't have that device, so not sure how :D
@@unfa00 install their os :)
34:05 I thought Jatin is an Indian name. But who knows maybe he’d be alright with French pronunciation of it. 👍
You may name chips a cool name Crunchygators or potato snacks and there is a difference. Those guitar effects are not only effects but also cool gadgets - that's why it's Bass Cleaner, not a hi-pass filter. You are just bad guitar player 😛
