nope. qsynth has no jack-session support atm.

theres a couple of reasons that sets it back in that regard: qsynth
state is stored on a global user configuration file that doesn't depend nor change across sessions whatsoever. the other reason is that qsynth is a singleton. you can only have one instance running at anyone given time. starting a second instance just activates the first one. been like that for ages now, way before jack-session was ever the talk of the town ;)

anyway, imo, the only advantage i can see to qsynth participate on a
jack-session would be its automatic launch on session load.

and the JACK connections. I can imagine that if Qsynth or app X has
its place between other JACK apps (which have JackSession support) in
a session, it would be quite cumbersome for making the JACK
connections, if that app X hasn't JackSession support (you could use
it as infra client maybe).


qjackctl session manager saves and restores connections of all clients event though clients aren't jack-session aware. upon session load, connections are made if those client is already running or whenever it gets started later on manually. as i often say, it just works like qjackctl's patchbay "limited-edition" or w/e ;)

otoh, the auto-launch feature for non jack-session-aware clients would be the primary purpose of the infra-client mapping on the jack-session-manager side, right?
