Jack2 can and probably will run them concurrently if you have multiple CPUs, Jack1 will run them one after the other. > So back up, assume the soft-synth instances are generating audio > completely independently, e.g. they have their own internal sequencers, if > the outputs are both connected to the same Ardour instance does that then > make them dependent and force onto a single processor? Same as above. The basic principle is simple: a Jack app can run when all its inputs are available. Jack2 can run more than one at the same time, Jack1 can't. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
