The jack server uses the ALSA driver for your audio interface, and routes
audio between applications and the driver.
If you do not need to route audio between different applications then you
do not really need jack, you can just let your application connect
directly to the ALSA driver. That is the current recommendation for
Ardour.
And if this ISN"T the correct forum, please send

one so I don't trouble the wrong teams
Users of jackd use this mailing list, not just the developers, but for
general linux recording questions probably the linux-audio-users list is
the best place.
