Alternative to PulseAudio
I'm trying to run ableton live, but the program won't boot up unless pulseaudio driver is unchecked through winecfg. What can I do about installing maybe a usb audio driver for my audiogram 3? Can I get a different driver for wine? This is ableton live we are talking about, and I haven't gotten any sound out of it yet.

driver, but it will route Ableton Live's audio outputs into Jack. I
doubt ALSA will give you good performance, and i can't remember if
Ableton sees alsa directly or not. you probably better off with
wineASIO/jack.
From what i remember of using Live in Linux a couple of years ago, the
setup can be a bit of a pain and your mileage will vary. ie: don't
have the expectation that it will run the same or better than in
Windows or MacOSX.
WineASIO link;
http://sourceforge.net/projects/wineasio/
you will also need to get the ASIO SDK from steinberg to compile
wineASIO (i don't have a link off hand, google it). and this guide
although geared towards setting up Reaper in wine, has a section on
compiling and installing WineASIO. this site is somewhat dated, but
the compilation is pretty much the same

info on Jack-audio-connection-kit (although you should be able to
install jack with your disto's package manager)
http://www.jackaudio.org
going back to my point on 'your milage will vary', have a look at
wine's Application DataBase on Ableton;
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... +Developer
as you can see, you may or may not get it to run very well.

That driver is not part of official Wine. It's not supported here.DariousBlount wrote:I'm trying to run ableton live, but the program won't boot up unless pulseaudio driver is unchecked through winecfg.
