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 ?
