Description-en: various JACK tools: dl, record, scope, osc, plumbing, udp, play, transport
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 jack-udp is
obsolete: use net driver instead.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.
