I went from 5.33ms to 1.33ms latency, and from occasional xruns to zero, and even with that my jackd usage percent is cut in half! Shocking. And that's three Yoshimis simultaneously. :-) I am tempted to giggle, but I am happier than that!!! <br><br>The only partial catch was MIDI; without the ALSA driver for Jack, one does not have Jack MIDI :-) Unless, of course, one uses a2jmidid, so that's what I'm doing. With such a small Jack period, the extra period for a2jmidid is not an issue.</div></div><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></div><div style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Just had to report, and congratulate, and thank, everyone involved!!!!!</div><div><br><div id=""><p class="MsoNormal"><font face="serif,times new roman"><i><font color="#660000" size="3">Jonathan E.
