I have used Jack with two audio devices, a usb device for input and a built in laptop device for playback. There were audible dropouts, but that is because the built in device is poorly made. So using my past experience, it would be possible to use a usb mic as input and a second usb device for output, creating a self contained portable studio. -lee -----Original Message----- From: Lars Luthman <larsl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subj: Re: Blue snoball USB mic Date: Thu Mar 16, 2006 2:30 Size: 983 bytes To: A list for linux audio users <linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On Thu, 2006-03-16 at 02:02 -0500, Lee A.

Remember that JACK can only handle one audio device, so it's probably not completely trivial to record from an USB microphone (which is a separate audio device) and for example output to another soundcard using JACK. -- Lars Luthman PGP key: http://www.student.nada.kth.se/~d00-llu/pgp_key.php Fingerprint: FCA7 C790 19B9 322D EB7A E1B3 4371 4650 04C7 7E2E --- message truncated ---
