State of jackd in NixOS

Exactly. I should clean it up a little and publish it. It’s currently closed and in gitlab. There’s a lot about it that’s peculiarly “me” though. I’d probably want to abstract the interesting purpose-driven part. And more importantly, it could be collaborated on.

My audio config looks something like this:

  # Load the sequencer and midi kernel modules.
  boot.kernelModules = ["snd-seq" "snd-rawmidi"];
  users.extraUsers.mindtree.extraGroups = [ "audio" "realtime" ];

  services.pipewire = {
    enable = true;
    alsa = {
      enable = true;
      support32Bit = true;
    };
    jack.enable = true;
    pulse.enable = true;
  };

  # Must disable pulseaudio to allow for the pipewire pulseaudio emulation.
  hardware.pulseaudio.enable = false;

Can confirm on 22.05 this works to allow me to record from within Ardour 6, thanks! NixOS 33: Getting Ardour Audio Inputs Working on NixOS 22.05 - YouTube

Does Mixxx work for you when you connect USB MIDI devices?

So far, I haven’t been able to connect any USB MIDI devices. I wonder if a home-manager config would solve my problem…
