Hi,
I just discovered, that the Portaudio team is working on a Jack backend for its library. A preliminary version seems to be in the devel branch on portaudio-CVS.
As Pd already uses PA for its OS-X and ASIO support, it seems only natural to me, if Pd could use PA for Jack on Linux as well. This would remove the need to have different Jack patches around.
So, did anyone here try Pd with Portaudio-Jack already?
We have been discussing this at the ICMC with Miller, and he said that this would be a great solution (the new portaudio supports almost everything that exists).
There are changes to PD necessary though, because there are changes in the portaudio API.
I think it is better to wait until Portaudio V19 is officially released.
