I am trying this project now.

But i got some problem on Ubuntu 22.04.3:

I try some code in the repl, but can't hear any sound.

insane-noises.core=> (foo)
#<synth-node[loading]: insane-noises.core/foo 46>
insane-noises.core=> (definst foo [] (saw 220))
#<instrument: foo>
insane-noises.core=> (foo)
#<synth-node[loading]: insane-noises.core/foo 47>
insane-noises.core=> (demo 5 (sin-osc 440))
#<synth-node[loading]: insane-noisesabd/audition-synth 48>
insane-noises.core=> (demo 5 (sin-osc 440))
#<synth-node[loading]: insane-noisesabd/audition-synth 49>
insane-noises.core=> (demo 5 (sin-osc 440))
#<synth-node[loading]: insane-noisesabd/audition-synth 50>


(use 'overtone.live) not work on ubuntu 22.04.2.

I installed SuperCollider and jackd now.

Sorry for the slow response, I hadn't seen your message was waiting for approval.

On Linux the most common cause for not hearing any sound is that your jack outputs aren't connected. A program like qjackctl can show you a "patch bay" where you can see the connections between programs and interfaces. Connect the first two outputs of overtone to the left and right output of your sound card.

I installed SuperCollider and jackd now.

I'm planning to write some Linux specific troubleshooting instructions. On recent enough systems you may not need jackd, and installing it may make things more confusing. Pipewire is set to become the norm, replacing both PulseAudio and Jack, while remaining API/ABI compatible with them, so existing applications will continue to work. Ubuntu 22.04 is a bit annoying because it's in the middle of that transition, it has pipewire installed, but does not use it as the default...

Yes, Linux audio is a mess. Feel free to contact me directly on Clojurians or hop into the #overtone channel. I do think things will get better in the next year or two as Pipewire becomes the norm everywhere.
