where to get jackrouter

by John J. Williamson

Hello, I use jack2, but still have the jackrouter plugin in my OS X plugin folder. I am trying to understand if this is suppled by jack2, or is a hangover from jackosx. Either way it works. Thanks

virtual channels

by John J. Williamson

Hi there, With 0.92 on OS X, I used to be able to set the number of virtual channels in JackPilot. Now I am using QJackCtl and I cannot see a way to add virtual channels. If I increase the number of I/Os in ‘advanced’ to beyond the 2i/2o of my interface, the jack server fails to start. For a recording workflow I use it would be very handy to have the JackRouter device present more I/Os than 2. Am I missing something? Thanks

qjackctl (Windows 10) does not want to start my scripts

by Nicolai Beuermann

Hello, from time to time i want to use qjackctl and jack under Windows 10. So i installed latest version of jack bundle for windows (1.9.17) and got qjackctl version: 0.9.0. The problem i have is that the option "Execute script.." does not really start my scripts. I've tried .bat scripts and powershell scripts, both are running fine from commandline, but they does not work as expected from within qjackctl. On another win10 pc with the old version 0.3.0 the same scripts work like a charm. Does anybody have any clue about the right usage? Thank you very much.
