Initial Comment: This was discussed many times: http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-list@iem.at/msg07964.html http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-list@iem.at/msg26623.html [...] Pd should not connect automatically to jackd, at least, it should be an option. This is mac/win philosophy, where user choose it's output device, and pd route the outputs to it. Jack server is another idea: each pd ports can be connected to several I/O from different softwares/device I/O, and so it can be used as plugin or whatever. My personal experience: in one patch, some outputs goes directly to L/R (out 1+2), other pass through a CALF compressor. Sometimes I get a sound from a device input (but not obviously In 1 -> pd In 1), and other from Ardour, etc... So every times I launch Pd, I have to disconnect every I/O in jack, boring... For this complex routing, qjackctl patchbay do very well his job, and autoconnect pd to all jack client I decided, and same for MIDI. Then maybe PD will be ready for compatibility with jack session / ladish?
