Anyway, if any MacBook or other OS X user has found an

that's not how you'd do critical audio work), I'd appreciate any tips
you might pass my way. Currently, I'm using built-in input and output
set in OS X's preferences and for the VM, and in jack 1024 frames/period
with 4 periods/buffer in RT.
Folks at this WNYLUG (
wnylug.org) here in Western New York are quite
interested in virtualization technology as well as audio work so I'd
like to be able to give them a good look at both.
I'd be really surprised if you could get JACK to work at that low a
latency in a VM - it's hard enough to get it to work native! You'll
probably have to crank the period size up until the xruns stop then
work with that.
Do any of the Linux audio oriented distros come on a live CD?
