It's some time since I looked at the code, but AFAIK Jack's ALSA backend will wait for both input and output to be ready to provide/accept a period of samples. Then there is a difference between Jack1 and Jack2: Jack1 will read the input at the start of a period, then call all clients, and when all are done write to the output. Jack2 (without -S) will read the input and write the output of the previous period at the start a period, then run all clients. With -S it behaves as Jack1. So there are 4 cases to consider: Jack1 or Jack2 Input is slower or output is slower. At this time of day (22:55) I'm not going to torture my brain to find out what would happen in each of these cases. But it's certainly an interesting exercise, maybe it will appear in my dreams tonight. Anyway if the two devices don't have coherent sample rates, just use zita-a2j/j2a. Of course you could use the input as master when recording, and the output when mixing. But in practice it wouldn't matter at all - there is no loss of 'quality' when the resampling is done the right way.
