Linux jamulus version feedbacks because MUTE ME is not muting me....

[Thatwouldbemetoo]

Starting with Jamulus for Linux. Sounds get killed by feedback killer because extreme feedbacks occure via Microphone. Even while MUTE ME is pressed (or not pressed, doesn't matter)

Start Jamulus on Linux

Mute sound when mute button is pressed

The Mute Me button is not intended to prevent you from hearing yourself, only to prevent others from hearing you.

When turned on, it does two things:

• prevents sending of your own audio input to the server.
• mixes your audio input into the audio returned from the server, so that only you can hear it. It honours your fader level when mixing you back in.

It is designed to enable you to play along with a group (e.g. to practise) without them hearing you.

You should never have Jamulus output to speaker while your microphone is enabled. Use headphones instead.

I believe there's a bug somewhere with the mute (not mute myself) button. But I can't reproduce it.
So yes, something is off. Maybe it's a race condition or a wrong ID for the own fader.

Thanks for your fast reply, really appreciated !

I use Jamulus on Mac too, where it works fine. In my (new) linux computer I noticed that the inputsignal is always feeded to the faderbank (along with all the other players), weather the MUTE ME button is off or on. On the mac this signal is only routed to the faderbank when MUTE ME is off. That might be an indication of where it diverse per version.
But the feedback keeps on going, even if I plug in a headphone. The feedback killer is preventing it actually plays out this sound, but the led-indicators sure show it's still there. So it's something internally looping back.

But i'm still struggeling to have JAMULUS run on linux, working my way around with JACK (Due to updated versions I need to use pipewire -> Jack )
and still struggeling to get any sound out of my 49-key USB keyboard feeding into Jamulus. (im using ZynAddSubFX as midi sound keyboard synth)

So you are probably right about the function of the Mute button, but it does do something different compared to mac version

Hope you can help out somehow.

all the best and happy new year
