Hi Fons,
The "developers of jack2" (…) don't have time right now to invest for this
resampling code rewrite, but will be very interested to zita-ajbridge working. Concerning
direct ASIO backend support, attached is some files I started to write some months ago,
taking the LinuxSampler code base as a starting point. But the code is absolutely not
ready as has even not been compiled….
Would "the research center of a very big, corporation" be ready to put some
money to have theses development be accelerated ?
(in any case, I can at least compile any new code base on the Windows development machine
we have, and publish new Windows binaries, and probably do the same on OSX).

the developers of jack2 have so far not bothered
to integrate the "shared"
repository for jack tools into their source code.
And they are still using the completely broken resampling code
from alsa_in/out wherever this function is needed.
At my new work place (the research center of a very big
corporation) I'm currently trying to push jack2 on Windows
as a solution for some of the problems we're facing.
We've been doing some tests this week, and the showstopper
is the really abysimal performance of all of the jack2 tools
that depend on resampling.
If the jack2 devs don't fix this and do it very soon, then
we will - by porting zita-ajbridge (where the 'a' will stand
for ASIO) and zita-njbridge to Windows. And probably also by
rewriting the the backend and make it use ASIO directly
instead of going through Portaudio. Why on earth should
a system such as Jack support anything but ASIO ?
Tschuss,
