Thanks for the reply Jan. I'm a bit confused though, on the Jamin site I
believe you mention that you will be releasing API details soon. Does
that mean an API is in the works but not made yet?
I can understand why it wouldn't be a top priority, but I would think a
way to hook Jamin up to generic hardware control systems ( midi boxes,
etc ) would be quite a useful addition. An API giving access to the
various input controls and output display would make such an extension
pretty easy.
My own purpose is hopefully to be able to use it to replace the usual
bank of compressors and eqs used in live sound just before the final
outs. I do live techno shows, so it makes a BIG difference to be able to
get our final mix closer to the hotness and loudness of a mastered record.

I should clarify, I mean actually slave each knob up to a cc so that
they can be tweaked with hardware live in a gig situation in order to
tune a mix to a room. So just changing snapshots would not be enough.
I've been looking online, but I haven't found anything that lets me do
this while also having visual feedback of in/out/gain reduction. Surely
there must be something?
If not, is there an API for Jamin? Perhaps I could just write a portmidi
app that uses the api to control the parameters in real time.
Nope, no API. Also, no knobs ;-)

Or alternatively, is there any way to control the Jamin
parameters
externally, either via midi cc's or an api?
You can use OSC to change scenes (20 available). This has been done
from Ardour (ask Ron Parker how ;).
