jack-tools (tools for jack)
This collection contains a bunch of small tools for JACK, written by
Rohan Drape.
Included utilities:
rju-data - JACK audio data onto OSC.
rju-dl - JACK shared library dsp loader.
rju-osc - JACK Transport Publication Daemon.
rju-play - JACK Sound File Player.
rju-plumbing - JACK Plumbing Daemon.
rju-record - JACK Capture Client.
rju-scope - JACK Oscilloscope.
rju-transport - Minimalist JACK Transport Interface.
rju-udp - JACK UDP Transport Client.
If you have the VST SDK from Steinberg, the package can also include
some VST-related tools:
rju-lxvst - Linux native VST host. Not included by default.
lxvst-query - Print information about a Linux native VST plugin.
See README_VST.txt for details.
In previous versions of jack-tools, the tool names had "jack-" as a
prefix, instead of "rju-". Upstream changed the names in April, 2021.
This package uses POSIX filesystem capabilities to execute with
elevated privileges (required for realtime audio processing). This
may be considered a security/stability risk. Please read
http://www.slackbuilds.org/caps/ for more information. To disable
capabilities, pass SETCAP=no to the script.
