Openstudio Openstudiopro-jack packages

Main goal of this project is to ease usage of legacy, not JACK-ified apps, in a JACK MIDI enabled system. a2jmidid is a daemon that implements automatic bridging. For every ALSA sequencer port you get one JACK MIDI port. If ALSA sequencer port is both one input and one output, you get two JACK MIDI ports, one input and one output.

Aj-snapshot is a small program that can be used to make snapshots of the connections made between JACK and/or ALSA clients. Because JACK can provide both audio and MIDI support to programs, aj-snapshot can store both types of connections for JACK. ALSA, on the other hand, only provides routing facilities for MIDI clients. Aj-snapshot is meant to be used from the command line.

ALSA is the Advanced Linux Sound Architecture.

jack-tools is a collection of small tools for the JACK Audio Connection Kit.

JACK allows the connection of multiple applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves.

jack-dl loads dsp algorithms from shared libraries. Commands are sent as OSC packets over a UDP connection.

jack-record is a light-weight JACK capture client to write an arbitrary number of channels to disk.

jack-scope draws either a time domain signal trace or a self correlation trace. Multiple input channels are superimposed, each channel is drawn in a different color. jack-scope accepts OSC packets for interactive control of drawing parameters.

jack-osc publishes the transport state of the local JACK server as OSC packets over a UDP connection. jack-osc allows any OSC enabled application to act as a JACK transport client, receiving sample accurate pulse stream timing data, and monitoring and initiating transport state change.

jack-plumbing maintains a set of port connection rules and manages these as clients register ports with JACK. Port names are implicitly bounded regular expressions and support sub-expression patterns.

jack-udp is a UDP audio transport mechanism for JACK. jack-udp is obsolete: use net driver instead.

jack-play is a light-weight JACK sound file player. It creates as many output ports as there are channels in the input file.

jack-transport is a JACK session manager. It reads configuration information from a system wide and a user specific configuration file and manages sessions involving the JACK daemon proper and optionally a set of secondary jack daemons.

JACK is a low-latency sound server, allowing multiple applications to connect to one audio device, and to share audio between themselves.

This dummy package depends on the current default JACK implementation.

Mudita24 is a modification of the Linux alsa-tools' envy24control: an application controlling the digital mixer, channel gains and other hardware settings for sound cards based on the VIA Ice1712 chipset aka Envy24. Unlike most ALSA mixer controls, this application displays a level meter for each input and output channel and maintains peak level indicators. This is based on Envy24's hardware peak metering feature.

Mudita24 provides alternate name to avoid confusion with "envy24control 0.6.0" until changes in this version propagate upstream. As balance to the "Envy", this project needed some Mudita "In Buddhism the third of the four divine abidings is mudita, taking joy in the good fortune of another. This virtue is considered the antidote to envy and the opposite of schadenfreude."

This utility is preferable to alsamixer for those with ice1712-based cards: M-Audio Delta 1010, Delta 1010LT, Delta DiO 2496, Delta 66, Delta 44, Delta 410 and Audiophile 2496. Terratec EWS 88MT, EWS 88D, EWX 24/96, DMX 6Fire, Phase 88. Hoontech Soundtrack DSP 24, Soundtrack DSP 24 Value, Soundtrack DSP 24 Media 7.1. Event Electronics EZ8. Digigram VX442. Lionstracs, Mediastaton. Terrasoniq TS 88. Roland/Edirol DA-2496.

Patchage provides a graphical interface to connect jack and midi inputs and outputs. Each application is represented as one box with inputs on the left and output on the right. Boxes can be moved around and arranged to have a clear display of the current setup.

Qjackctl offers a user interface for controlling the JACK sound server daemon. At the same time it figures as a JACK patch bay and monitoring tool.

vorbis-tools contains oggenc (an encoder), ogg123 (a playback tool), ogginfo (displays ogg information), oggdec (decodes ogg files), vcut (ogg file splitter), and vorbiscomment (ogg comment editor).

ogg123 can play both Ogg Vorbis and FLAC audio streams.

This package allows you to use M-Audio's USB MIDI and Audio interfaces with Linux. These devices require a firmware download before an operating system driver (e.g. ALSA's snd-usb-audio) can access them.

Supported devices:

• MidiSport 1x1
• MidiSport 2x2
• MidiSport 4x4
• MidiSport 8x8
• KeyStation (old models: 49, 61)
• Oxygen
• Radium49
• Radium61
• Uno The loader is not required for the MidiSport 2x4 and for newer KeyStation models (49e, 61es, Pro 88).
