Good to know. The production box stays native, but I'll stick with JACK1
for now.
JACK has nothing to do with "apps" code-wise
unless there is a
specific compile-time config which the app needs, so there is no need
to recompile anything of that sort (Ardour, Qtractor). What usually
requires recompilation are libraries, but so far I don't know of any
such inter-related lib. For eg. you can have an older ffado and still
run jack with firewire.
Okay, thanks, that's what I was really concerned about.
Best,
