By connected, I mean that Yoshimi presents the main L & R audio ports + 16 pairs for individual parts, or 34 total. In practice, most people only link the main pair to anywhere else, so although all the others appear in qjackctl they are not actually doing anything. Like this, do they still count in the total? -- It wasn't me! (Well actually, it probably was) ... the hard part is not dodging what life throws at you, but trying to catch the good bits. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
