great nedko, installing py-xml solved the problem!

jack_mixer really is a very good appi, but for fully enjoying , we have 
to wait the other appis to be lashed! than it is really gonna be a fun.
unfortunately, i do not have any midi controller here right now, so i 
cannot try this function in the moment.

anyway, very much thanks for the support and for the effort given into 
jack_mixer!

cheers,
