Probably means with jack. Part of the reason for using jack is to be able
to change routing and add audio blocks in the middle of the audio signal.
For example:
Sax -> mic->jack->eq->jack->reverb->jack->audacity
So the user starts jack and has the mic sound on capture-1. The user can
hook that up to one of the meter programs to see the signal and set the
the audio card inputs to the right amount below clipping... Or better use
the Audio IFs meters.
Oh, I see. Makes sense. And, truly I'm really not using jacks power at
all. The only reason I'm using it at all is that I find that if I have
auacity play back a single track and record a 2nd it crashes and
burns. But, with jack it appears to be okay.
I'll have to do some more testing with the Presonus interface. But
that's for tomorrow.

The
greatest bugbear of using audacity directly for recording is that it
uses
portaudio which doesn't create any connections until you actually send
it data.
Yeah, I've heard others mention this. Why is it a problem?
