I'm guessing the goal is to see if better performance in driving
softsynths can be obtained by using zita-j2a to handle output

think it was intended to be a jack1/jack2 match off. To me it
seems like an interesting experiment, and I hope Jonathan keeps
up the tests, despite the so far only negative feedback.
One of the fun things about being an ignorant user is to
sometimes try stuff out just for the heck of it and find things
even the original creator of something didn't intend. If people
only followed rules, entire genres of music wouldn't likely
exist, so I say bring on the experimentation.
absolutely agreed.
And it is very accurate to call me an ignorant user of these tools !!!
I do just make lots and lots of guesses, most of them wrong, try to
diagnose and learn, and happily (and not unsurprisingly) end up with
good working systems :-)
I'll try simplex output jack1/Zita fairly soon, unless someone beats me
to it! I haven't before simply because simplex has never made a
difference for me in either vanilla Jack1 or Jack2, but I have to agree,
Zita is enough of a game-changer to warrant such a test.
It might be worth it. My UCA202 running on my old Celeron based laptop
couldn't do duplex at all; both audio signals were noisy and low-volume.
On my i7 laptop, it does duplex just fine. Using JACK2 in both cases.
