Hi<div><br></div><div>Actually, there is some info that can be found here and there on some forums (see below)</div><div><br></div><div>JDelay is, from what I've understood, a command-line tool that allows you to determine your sound card latency.</div>
<div><br></div><div>#1 : start jack</div><div>#2 : type jdelay in a terminal</div><div>#3 : patch connections in jack : input -> jdelay, jdelay -> output, you should get a tone in your speakers</div><div>#4 : latency is calculated, using phase difference between input and output</div>
<div>#5 : in the terminal, the latency is printed in msec.</div><div><br></div><div>It never worked on my soundcard, "signal below threshold" was all that was printed in my terminal.</div><div><br></div><div>You can find info here :</div>

Thanks to Julien and Rui Capela. Being a musician and engineer, this
seems to be a great place to land in and learn new stuff in this world
of Linux audio. Currently, I am still not able to find document that I
need to solve 2 existing problems:
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>Question on using JDelay:</b></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have only one web source that has some details about using
this tool:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/" target="_blank">http://www.kokkinizita.net/linuxaudio/</a>
and this reads: "It uses a phase measurements on a set of tones to
measure the delay from the output to the input".</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How do I use these phase measurements and how do I pass in these
tones? Are they special tones? What kind of oscillator do I need to
use to generate these special tones? How do I pass in an audio tick or
click? How do I do other settings? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>$ jack_delay -h --help does not show me the help menu</div>
