Tomorrow I have to buy the midi-jacks
and an adapter for my touch-screen, because the connector is
female, but I need a male connector, because the cable ends with female connector.
Here is my first question, and I want to thank you now, looking foreward to a great project.
Has the Zynthian touch screen the same pin assignment like my 5inch screen?
Perhaps someone has a drawing or so.
At last: please excuse my bad english. There was not enough time to practice the language.

Hi !
I have a Behringer U-control UCA202 and wanted to test Zynthian with it. It’s working good with Linux Debian with my MAO computer and i wonder why you say this advertisment. Zynthian doesn’t work good with USB SoudCard ? I have a PCM2704 USB DAC too if it’s better …
Thanks !
(and well… sorry for the english too, it’s not my native language either)
Hi,
I´m using the UCA 222 since years with windows netbooks etc and I had no problems. Especially the latency was using the special ASIO-Driver very good.
I could run fluidsynth on Raspberry Pi. I could run GM-Sounds etc.
But I had to install it every time from the scratch. ( I have to learn how to program an autostart
With more experience I want to use the UCA 222 because it has an audio-input. My target is to play (simple) songs with acc guitar and a small audio- or midi -playback.
I cannot say anything to zynthian, because it´s not (jet) running.
Hi Markus,
I do not know, where I can find the webconf tool and the Zynthian/hardware page you showed me below.
Thanks for helping (I think, it´s just a question of a few weeks ;-))
Regards

you need to know the IP address of your zynthian. Type it in your browser.
I assume that zynthian-ui is not running yet, so that you can’t get it from there.
if it is not zynthian.local, take a look in the configuration page of your home lan router.
IP Address hunting on a raspberry pi can be a bit of a pain…
What are you using as your host machine?
Linux
Mac
Windows
The reason is that in the Linux & Mac world there is a lovely little tool called avahi or bonjour on the mac that allows you to ignore IP addresses altogether and use the nice friendly name
zynthian.local
Unfortunately this can be set up on a windows machine but it involves quite a dance.which is documented somewhere on here . . .
That will give you a name and is VERY MUCH the preferred way of working…
It’s worth knowing that nowadays if a piece of kit can have a web interface and it will.
Your Internet router will probably have a helpful web page that you get to by typing the peculiar ip address 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or something else into the web browser on a machine that is also attached to the same router.
You will probably need a username and password . . .Often they ain’t changed. That is a bad thing not to do . . . .
Don’t bother about why the number is like that it just is cos … history.
If you can get to the router and have connected your Zynthian Pi to the same router with an Ethernet cable. Yes they do need to be near each other for this …There is wifi but personally I don’t use it. If anyone can boot a zynth without running jack cleanly straight into wifi then things have changed since I last tried it
But the web admin of your router may display the ip address of the raspberry pi it sees and that is one way of getting the ip address cos it’s your router that generally gives the addresses out, and they CAN change
This is why using names is much more sane.
So put either the ip address or zynthian.local into the url section of your browser on your host machine. and you should see the webconf of the xzynth. This is where you set up the hardware that is connected to your zynhian.
/etc/dbus-1/system-local.conf
replace the line
allow own=“org.freedesktop.ReserveDevice1.Audio0”
with
allow own=“org.freedesktop.ReserveDevice1.Audio1”
You see my first case. I think, it’s not the last.
The fault was the display (shit happens). And I had a lot to learn. For example: On my job we had a WebConfTool to make conferences with other employees. I needed a lot of time to understand, that you have a WebConfigurationTool…
Now I have a lot of questions:
Some Sounds have a small distortion. Is it possible to edit the buffersize and the gain?
Is it possible to define a window (e.g. ch1 from note #32 - #72)?
How can I route the signal from the source to an effect and to the output?
I like to play with a playback. How can I play a playback an simultaneously play a Zynthian Sound?
I hope to solve this problems with your help. So thank you in advance.
Happy easter
into the web browser on a machine that is also attached to the same router.
