Yeah, obviously that'd be by far the easiest way. Stupid me.

doesnt Ladish does that? (http://ladish.org/)

What do you mean with turn audio on at startup? on Pd? you can send a loadbang to a message to turn the dsp on... but maybe that isnt what you want...

Thank you Marco, but I don't need to run many apps. What does the "exit" do though?
 I'd be interested in a command that would turn the audio on at startup, i don't know whether this is possible.

Just to satisfy my curiosity, how far can we go using scripts? Would it be possible to launch Pd and write a patch from scratch directly from a script?

Thanks again for your help.

Hi Pierre,
also the -p argument is quite useful if you use multiple soundcard (like travel setup, studio, etc...), as it allows to choose which profiles you want jack to load.

Using many applications for one project, I found useful the following script.

First, I have one folder where to save all different software patches included in a project. 
I keep one unique name for several file formats, so I can use the script below to launch a studio setup at once indicating the project name as a variable $1. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#! /bin/bash

qjackctl -s -p FocusriteSaffire40 &
sleep 5

ardour2 ../ardour/$1/$1.ardour &
hydrogen $1.h2song &
zynaddsubfx -l $1/$1.xmz &
seq24 --file $1/$1.midi &

exit
