ubuntustudio-controls sets zframe to jack frame divided by 2. This is what 
the man apge suggests (or maybe a coversation in the mailing list). So, in 
$HOME/.config/autojack/autojackrc you will find that frame = 1024 and 
zframe = 512 by default. You can change the value in this file to whatever 
you want and tell jack to restart and it will pick it up. The next version 
of -controls will need to handle this better.

I am glad you are finding it useful. It started as a "quick" script in 
bash to set things up for my own use. Other people asked to be able to use 
it and here we are.
