I’m recording some MIDI sent from Pure Data into a track with ACE fluid synth. It works for 10 seconds, then I get the popup:
“The disk system on your computer was not able to keep up with Ardour”
“Specifically, it failed to write data to disk quickly enough to keep up with recording”
I am using Ardour 7.3.0~ds0. I know that’s old but I haven’t seen this reported on the forum so I don’t know whether this bug is fixed. I’m also using an SSD. Audio system is JACK on pipewire.
I also tried recording my keyboard instead but it also failed.
Make sure you have a recent version of pipewire, it has taken quite a while for pipewire to get stable.
oog, I’m on pipewire 0.3.65 which might explain it.
Yep things didn’t get good with PipeWire and JACK stuff until around 0.3.84, 1.0.0 ‘stable’ release is pretty good for most people. In general the 1.2.X releases seem pretty solid now…
BTW that is a pretty old Ardour too (although the very latest has issues too)…
