I seem to recall someone saying there is a limit
to the number of ports
jack
can handle. What is the limit?
Depends on the implementation.
In all cases, the -p argument given to the server will specify the number
of ports. In Jack1 it defaults to 256 but can be increased arbitrarily. In
Jack2, I don't know the default, but I do know that the upper limit is
fixed at build time. In most cases it will be 2048.
What
about MIDI, how many MIDI ports can jack handle?
counted towards the total.
Is there a difference between the number of ports
registered, and the
number
actually connected?
depends on what you mean by "connected"
Thanks for the remarkably quick answers guys!
By connected, I mean that Yoshimi presents the main L & R audio ports + 16
pairs for individual parts, or 34 total. In practice, most people only link the
main pair to anywhere else, so although all the others appear in qjackctl they
are not actually doing anything. Like this, do they still count in the total?
