... which is precisely what led me to look at the zyn code in the first
place. Jack io is fairly well understood these days (very different to
2002-2005 when ZynAddSubFX was written!) so I figured it had to be
possible for it to work well. That said, it wasn't exactly a simple task
to get it to where it is now - major restructuring required.

I noticed earlier that you're running with a jack period size 128. For my
benefit in seeking robustness, does yoshimi behave any better for you with
a period size of 256?

cheers.
