Very nice. The part about having an ASIO based netjack interface is a
key element that I was not aware existed. And the jack-midi virtual
device solves the transport issue as well. I need to give this a try
once I finish building my new system.
I'll also be interested to see how well routing netjack connections
between a windows guest and mac guest works out. Should be
interesting.
Perhaps in cases like this where more than one jack process is
competing for processor time, Round Robin scheduling might work
better...
I'm interested to see how KVM compares to VirtualBox. From what I
understand it's a bit faster / lower latency because it "runs closer
to the metal" compared to VirtualBox / Xen / VMware.

using netjack and the master running at -p1024 seems to be working fine.
at least when i compress the audio, and there is not too much gfx memory
transfers.
i have put a windows build of jacknone-0.4 on http://netjack.sf.net
this is basically jack-1.9.4 with qjackctl and a fixed audioadapter.
it includes netone with celt-0.7 and jack_trans2midi which generates
midi clock... so you can sync your windows apps to jack transport.

No problems yet. I'm putting together a new system and had thought of
using Windows and Mac as guest VM systems under KVM for running things
that don't exist for Linux and/or don't work well with WINE. And I
wanted to see if anybody had tried routing the VM audio ins / outs to
JACK rather than directly to an audio sink.
Wanted to see if anybody had seriously tried this before I gave it a go. On Sat, Dec 5, 2009 at 8:39 PM, Paul

In that case I guess my best bet would probably be to petition KVM
development to add support for JACK. Currently I believe it supports
ALSA, OSS, SDL and PulseAudio.
If KVM already supports those api's then it can be used with jack via
several different methods. What is the problem that you are having exactly?
