Hi,
Perhaps a newbie question, but the available information is somewhat
contradictory. I'm under the impression that the Jack server on Windows
only works with ASIO devices, along the lines of:
jackd -R -S -d portaudio -d "ASIO::<device name here>"
Is it possible to instead use a DirectSound device? Documentation
indicates that it should be, but on my machine any variation like this
fails:
jackd -R -S -d portaudio -d "DirectSound::<device name here>"
Am I missing something, or is it in fact not currently possible to to
connect to a directsound device?

It should work. What's the error message? Use
Jackd -d portaudio -l
to list devices

What I am ultimately trying to do is to create a large number (8-16) of
"virtual audio cables" which various DirectSound applications can use to
route audio between themselves. I have successfully done this using
other software (VB-Cable), but I am curious to know if I can use Jack
for the same thing. I still do not understand the model that Jack is
based on, despite everything I've read. I've never managed to get a
"jackrouter" device to appear in Windows sound manager.
These are the devices jackd sees on my machine:

Pretty sure that no matter which physical device API you use, jackd
presents an ASIO interface for applications to use. Rather jackrouter
interfaces from ASIO to jackd ports.
