This is months old, but I have news to this topic.
The suggested changes work and we have set up 11x16channel audio
monitors. That is 176 speakers!
However, running Jack is highly unstable, it crashes roughly every two
minutes and causes a huge amount of XRuns even at buffer sizes like
16000. CPU is down at 5%, so that is not the issue. Jack runs without a
problem when using just one card. However, we need to combine the three
MADI-Cards via .asoundrc in order to eventually get to 768 channels.
I have the jack logs here: https://pastebin.com/ke25cdXB
Do you have any idea what could cause the issue?
Best, Jörg

The corresponding cpp-file at that line compares against a variable
called "DRIVER_PORT_NUM", which is a constant defined in
"common/JackConstants.h" on line 53 on the github repo. Could that be
the problem?
That's absolutely the problem, but the limit is arbitrary. Feel
free to
recompile jackd2 with changed constants in JackConstants.h.
I guess you need to tweak a bunch of other values as well.
PORT_NUM, PORT_NUM_MAX, DRIVER_PORT_NUM (that's per direction),
PORT_NUM_FOR_CLIENT
That should be it.
Play a bit so it matches your setup. Feel free to send a patch.
