With Lash we can hopefully soon complete recall a setup. JACK isn't really suited for doing modular type things - there is a fixed number of ports you can use (which is rather low by default) and doing a context switch for every ugen will get rather expensive. Same goes for the ALSA sequencer or any IPC-based routing system. JACK is great for connecting a couple of clients, but building a large modular synth patch from JACK clients isn't the best way. --ll
