Re: [LAU] Jack vs. Alsa, PianoTeq demo: Alsa wins!

Hi, I realized that this would be pertinent info this morning, thanks for reminding me... I'm on Arch Linux, and I used both kernels 2.6.33-rt and the standard 2.6.32-LTS (long-term support) with the same results.... It's Jack 0.118.0-2 and also 0.120.2-1 that were problematic for me. They also caused weird behavior with fluidsynth-1.1.3--with my M-Audio KeyRig 49 USB keyboard, there were HUGE (.5 seconds!!!) midi delays. I installed jack2-svn today and the fluidsynth issue is now gone. And, although the PianoTeq xruns are much better, they are still slightly more apparent than with Alsa alone. I don't know what happened, but, being pragmatic, one has to just find versions that work....yikes!
