You could always use a shell script to connect your ports after Pd has launched (either using jack.plumbing or jack_connect). Arguably, this would be a preferred way of dealing with such issue on linux rather than providing specific externals. Also note that on pd-extended there is already an abstraction called [output~] that provides some GUI trivia to [dac~] (volume, mute buttons etc) but is hard-coded to provide a stereo [dac~], I am not sure where it comes from.
Alternatively, you could also use qjackctl's patchbay to save your connections if you prefer a GUI.
./MiS

yeah, can do that but my sound card(RME Multiface) has 18 or something ins/outs. so that makes it a bit annoying when using those outs for hardware patching. t

usually, [dac~] with a specific argument does just that. Your output jacks are defined by your hardware. so [dac~ 1 2] is the default, stereo out. but you could do [dac~ 4] etc.

Is there a way to make a jack specific output~ rather than dac~. If so would it possible create the jack port dynamically rather than setting outchannels flags at startup? ...oh yeah, on linux t ________________________________ Do you have a story that started on Hotmail? Tell us now
