planeshift jack client?
« on: June 23, 2005, 09:23:56 pm »
Is there a way to use planeshift through the jack sound server?
It would be nice as jack is the future in terms of audio in linux!

Isn\'t it like an alternative to ALSA or OSS? Just another sound server for Linux?

Well, as I said, never heard. I don\'t even know if that has a CS plugin...

Never heard of it either.
And ALSA is the future mate.

I\'ve heard of Jack but mostly to do with multi-track recording. ALSA is the future.. it\'s in the kernel.

I doidn\'t know what it was either. After some Google-ing I had the bright idea of trying SourceForge, and I found this:

JACK is an open-source solution for inter-application audio (more like, stream data) routing.

If you know ReWire technology from PropellerHeads (Windows / MacOS / MacOS X) or DirectConnect from Digidesign, you know what I\'m talking about.

It\'s a very cool way to do virtual-rewiring of digital streams inside your PC, so you can get the \"outs\" of some applications or hardware into the \"ins\" of other hardware or applications dealing with digital stream data (eg: digital audio data).

Maybe a link to the explanation given at the open-source ardour digital audio workstation project (aka \"Digital Studio\") will help: The JACK Audio Connection Kit

Another good thing to check is JACK\'s FAQ, namely this How does JACK compare to...?
