So patchbay is similar to the audio connections panel, but I can save the "connections"? I'll have to look into that... Does anyone have experience/examples of SilentJack alerts/commands then? I've got it outputting to the console, just not sure how to get it to do x when silence happens. Thanks.

If you have a rather static setup, and already use qjackctl, then you can use its patchbay. It may be a bit painful to set up, but I guess it's fairly automatic from there on. > Last question - Does anyone have any examples of scripts to run after > SilentJack has detected silence?
