Greets all, I've got a nasty feeling I'm doing something stupid here, but i'm fed up of doing it on my own. sound blaster pci 128 ( ens1371 ) alsa0.9rc1 jack 0.44.0 I want to use jack-rack as a real time effects processor. The first thing i'm not entirely comfortable about is that whatever audio I send to the IN on my soundcard seems to get sent straight to the OUT ( i can record stuff ok ). Then i'm starting jack: [root@larry jordan]# jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:0 and the starting jack-rack ( as root, of course ). I've tried using the -o -i options here too. I get the following from jack_lsp: [root@larry jordan]# jack_lsp alsa_pcm:capture_1 alsa_pcm:capture_2 alsa_pcm:playback_1 alsa_pcm:playback_2 I've tried making what seemed like the sensible connections here with jack_connect, but the sound i'm sending in either just gets echoed to the output ( as per normal ), or I get hideous feedback. Somebody, please help. Thanks, Jordan.
