Re: [orca-list] what's the most accessible best way to Control and configure jack audio in ubuntu 12.04?

[Julien Claassen <julien mail upb de>]

Hello Trahern!
  The commandline interface is nice. But there are graphical applications to 
control several aspects of JACK audio, including connections management. 
There's qjackctl, which should be accessible in the latest Orca versions, 
those, that include the QT-api bits. I think there's also a GNOME (gtk) based 
application to do all that.
  On the command line, you have jack_control , which is the most basic. It has 
no interaction at all. but there is also jackctl (or jackctl.py). I'm not 
sure, if it's in one of the packages, but I might find the link or you might 
google it. It's only one python script and installation - if not automatically 
provided now - is just:
chmod 755 jackctl[version_something_or_other]
cp jackctl[the_something_or_other} /usr/local/bin
  This will offer a small shell with simple commands.
  There is also esjit, of which I know litle, but may be it can control JACK 
starting parameters as well as handling connections.
  You might also edit the right configuration file and set the options you 
need. I don't know, where it is, but you may ask on the ubuntu lists or one 
can google it or I could ask on the Linux-Audio-Users list.
  In general I find the most accessible solutions are commandline based, if 
there are any. there not always the most efficient, but in this case, I say, 
you get good value for your time investment.
  If you have more questions about the commandline side of audio - especially 
anything jack - just ask. It's a passion of mine. :-)
  Passionately yours :-)
