Everything is working splendidly, until I start to record Midi or Audio. Then everything freezes. I tried other audio-engines etc but only ALSA works. I also adjusted the buffer size and thereby latency.

Does anybody know what settings might possibly fix this?

Gratful for any and all suggestions no matter how outlandish.

If I could do all my recording on Debian I could ditch the airgapped windows machine I currently use for recording and finally be 100% FOSS.

Run it in a terminal and pipe the output to a text file.

~/> ardour > output.log

Something like above. That will give you the text output up to the crash and hopefully have useful information like an error code or fault warning.

Will this work even if it just freezes and technically never really crashes? Thanks this might be the light at the end of the tunnel. Would be grand if that gives the hint on how to make this work!
