JACK Audio Connection Kit
The
JACK Audio Connection Kit or
JACK is a
daemon that provides low latency connections between so-called
jackified applications. It is created by Paul Davis and others and licensed under the
GPL.
JACK is
free audio software. It can use
ALSA, PortAudio and (still experimental)
OSS as its back-end. As of 2003 it runs on
Linux and
Mac OS X.
