Dear all,

Anybody any clue what the following JACK message means?

"ports used in attemped connection are not of the same data type"

since JACK has only 2 data types at present, it implies that you were
trying to connect audio& MIDI ports.

Hello Paul,

That is the point, I wasn't doing that deliberately. This message
appears with practically every audio connection I try to make. And I'm
using QjackCtl which doesn't allow for making that kind of connections
afaik.
But at least I know what it means, thanks (pretty straighttforward
though, should've figured it out myself). And indeed, easy to reproduce
on the command line:

jack_connect system:capture_1 yoshimi:midi\ in

Results in a "ports used in attemped connection are not of the same data
type" message (with a little typo). Now my question remains why it appears.

Best,

Jeremy

Problem solved. I have a QjackCtl start-up script for a2jmidid that ran well with my other Focusrite card but the Saffire Pro 40 takes longer to initialize. What happens now is that a2jmidid comes up before the audio ports are created which causes these warnings. I've adapted my start-up script to wait until the audio ports come up before starting up a2jmidid. Works fine again. Thanks for the pointers everyone.

Best,

Jeremy
