The answer is Ardour.  First beta is coming out shortly but I've been
using it from CVS for about 5-6 months.  Check out
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ardour also
http://myweb.cableone.net/eviltwin69/ALSA_JACK_ARDOUR.html also
http://ccrma-www.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/.  You can use
qjackconnect to route anything JACK to anything else JACK.  Delta 1010,
ST Audio DSP 2000 C-Port, Terratec EWS88MT, or, on the high end, the
Hammerfall cards (digital).
