Linux build doesn't work very well
I'm having some trouble running the linux version. Running through Alsa gives me this:
Code:
JesuSonic v0.99 - Copyright (C) 2004-2005 Cockos Incorporated
Using output mode: 'ALSA'
Opening ALSA 'hw:0,0' for read
Error setting periods.
Try -nbufs 2 through -nbufs 16
(changing nbufs doesn't help)
I'm able to run it through OSS, but when I try to add any effects, the directories appear in the browser, but nothing else. The sound with no effects has somewhat of a "clicking" tone to it as well as an echo. Also, 100% cpu is consumed.
I'm running Gentoo Linux, Sound Blaster Audigy (alsa 1.0.9-rc3 emu10k1 driver) and use Alsa's OSS emulation. It works pretty much flawlessly on my Windows partition, by the way.

I was doing some testing running the Windows build through Wine, and interestingly enough, most of the same issues are present, which leads me to believe that this is an OSS / Alsa problem. When running Jesusonic through Wine with the OSS driver, I get exactly the same problems as I described above. When running through Wine with the ALSA driver, it works better but it echos so bad to the point where it's unuseable.
From what I've read about the Jesusonic hardware, it runs linux, so I would be interested to know what configuration they use.
The way I currently run it, I have my guitar connected to a Boss MT-2 Metal pedal, which goes to a Roland EQ, which then goes through a 1/4" -> mini (male) converter and connects to my Audigy's mic port. I've got the recording level on max, with the 20db boost off, which should 0 everything. It's not the best way to go, I know, but it works fine on Windows.
Any insight anyone could offer would be nice.

The devices we've used most are USB audio devices, mostly made by Creative. They seem to work very well, and when coupled with a impedance matching transformer (or a Rolls DB25 for example), perform very well. They have 24 bit versions for $50 or so.
On the linux side, we usually use 2.6.x, with the ALSA drivers built in, and the latest ALSAlib from the debian unstable branch (forget what version it was last I checked).
On the windows side, anything with ASIO seems to be the way to go. I routinely use it with firewire interfaces made by MOTU.
