Either your system is not set up correctly, or some of your apps don't behave as good jack apps. Yesterday I set up a system using (all at the same time) - 64 channels in/out (MADI), period size 256 - two ambisonic decoders, driving 32 channels, - five instances of Ardour, all playing tens of channels, - four instances of Jconv doing multichannel reverb convolutions, - other bits and pieces. I don't know the total number of jack ports and connections, but it must have been near 500. All this worked during more than 8 hours, without any glitch and zero xruns. As I knew it would - this was a demo for a *very* *big* customer and I could not afford anything going wrong. System: out-of-the-box F7 + CCRMA system, without any special tuning. -- FA Laboratorio di Acustica ed Elettroacustica Parma, Italia Lascia la spina, cogli la rosa. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
