i’m triyng to understand how to use Sonobus https://sonobus.net/ with ardour. I need something like this cause my aim is to record a podcast interviewing a person remotely an record it live. I’d like to serv my host a remote link of my pc or he can use an app to connect to my pc.
So i builded sonobus inside my archlinux distribution that is fully updated at today and then try to recall the sonovus lv2 plugin inside ardour. I struggled and then i started the debug mode to find this message
Thread 1 "ArdourGUI" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
Downloading source file /usr/src/debug/glibc/glibc/nptl/pthread_kill.c
__pthread_kill_implementation (threadid=<optimized out>, signo=signo@entry=6,
no_tid=no_tid@entry=0) at pthread_kill.c:44
44 return INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERROR_P (ret) ? INTERNAL_SYSCALL_ERRNO (ret) : 0;
(gdb)
I think that is a sonobus problem cause it not also also run with Carla, but can’t underastand the reference. I seen also an old thread of 2021 about sonobus and relatively problem with ardour gui: Recording remotely via network
Is there a solution? Or alternative?
Thanks bye!

I think I would probably reach out to the Sonobus community, you might get more of a response there, especially given the author of Sonobus, Jesse Chappell, is a former contributor to Ardour so I am sure he has probably thought about this at the least.
You could use jackd or pipewire-jack, conduct the interview using a chat or online meeting type application, and route the audio from that application into Ardour. I don’t know how easily that would let you split out the audio from the two(?) people speaking. Maybe some chat applications allow you to select whether you want your microphone audio mixed into the audio you are hearing, and you could turn that off, then route directly from your audio interface for recording your part, and from the chat application for recording the remote speaker.
Probably go with @seablade recommendations. As a lark, I installed Sonobus on my AVLinux 21 system (with Jack), using the Debian repo instructions, started an Ardour 8.6 (official) session, and had no trouble finding and loading the LV2 (it also came with a VST3).
