With the pipewire currently in [testing] it would even be the only thing you need to do, as it replaces jack2 (or jack). A good place to look for answers in regards to pipewire would be its official wiki [1] and documentation [2]. Please note, that before pipewire-jack >= 1:0.3.43-4 is in [extra] you will need to use pw-jack to run applications with pipewire's jack implementation or override your ld.so.conf (see wiki on that [3]). It should be moved this evening though and I'll try to update the wiki afterwards to reflect this change. > How do I tell pipewire to use e.g. hw:3,0 and make all of > its 64 channels appear as capture/playback ports in qjackctl ? I *think* you need to use the "Pro Audio" configuration for your specific device to make that work. > Note: I do not have anything PulseAudio (like pavucontrol) > installed and don't want to either. If that would be a > requirement then I'll just forget about using pipewire. Pavucontrol would be one way of doing so. It's also possible via pw-cli [4] (Wim Taymans gave that example on IRC - #pipewire on oftc.net is a good resource too!).
