And not only Jack, even some apps may be considered infrastructure instead of being particular to a session. RE switching sample rates, I really wonder what's the point. If you switch between 48 and 96 kHz that will in most cases have some inpact on your HW as well: ADAT or MADI channels for example. So that will require manual intervention anyway, no session manager can do that for you. There is not point in switching between 48 adn 44.1 kHz, just use 48 kHz all the time. Even if you record a CD. And how many Linux Audio users are recording CDs anyway. Many sound cards are designed for optimal performance at 48 kHz, with 44.1 being some compromise. RE switching buffer sizes, if your system works reliably with some size, there is no reason to use a larger one. > To me this is a non-issue.

NSM is IMHO the only decent session manager because it *doesn't* try to do things it shouldn't, and does those that it should do the right way. I'd love to see *some* changes to it, but certainly not the ones discussed in this thread. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia. It's also a pipe-dream, founded on self-delusion, nerd hubris and hysterically inflated market opportunities.
