By default, jackd maps its "alsa_pcm:capture_1" port to the "H/W In 1" 
input of the soundcard and its "alsa_pcm:playback_1" port to
the "PCM Out 1" of the soundcard.

I connected these two jack ports using qjackconnect, I guess I could do
the same with jack_connect. 

With envy24control's "Patchbay/Router", I chose "PCM Out 1" to be
heard on "H/W Out1" so that I can hear what jackd is spitting in 
"alsa_pcm:playback_1".

I this a little bit clearer ? Sorry for being confusing.

On the Omni itself ? I don't think I have such a button.
