Hi Gilgongo. Yes, I was testing with the Scarlett (2i2) on Windows as well as the Babyface Pro FS (BPF). I used the Focusrite drivers and the RME drivers. I did not use the ASIO4All driver. I could not achieve an acceptable audio quality with either of these audio interfaces against a local server on a Windows Surface Laptop 2 with Win10, a Dell Vostro with Win7 or a Toshiba Tecra with Win10. Today I also used the BFP in Class Compliant mode on the MacBook Air (from 2015) with excellent results....

After struggling to run Jamulus connected to a local server on Windows 7 and 10, then with Jamulus OS, today I installed it on an Apple MacBook Air and everything worked perfectly. Using a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 the setup could not have been simpler or the results more satisfying. The pops, crackles and drops on all other systems were simply gone. What was left was pure, clean audio with the occasional muffled ripple and total delay under 16 ms. This experience has restored my faith in Jamulus. I...

Thanks for this update, Gilgongo. I don't think I'll wade into that. Is there any chance that a future release of Jamulus OS might address it?

I'm not certain about this yet but I am beginning to suspect that using Zoom earlier in the day might be part of the issue. If I use Zoom with the laptop's built-in mic and speakers, this sets the system audio to those drivers as seen in the Window 10 Sound applet. Afterwards when plugging in my Babyface to use Jamulus, those system settings are not updated. The result seems to be very rough sounding audio when it should be the best possible with both client and server on the same machine. I'll have...

Yes, I have also experienced this in Vancouver, BC. I'd love to find out how to prevent this.

Clicking the keyboard icon did not do anything. I'll try the keyboard control panel. Being new to Linux, I'm not sure where to find it though. I did allow for persistent storage on the key so hopefully if I get this sorted out it will remember the setting.

Odd, indeed. The Surface laptop's keyboard is backlit and has a locking Function key to access the F* keys. Sadly this renders my best-performing machine unusable on Jamulus OS because I can't enter private server addresses or shut down the laptop in a timely manner.
