I looked into the patchbay a bit more and I do like it.
On top of an existing session, I can add

qjackctl -a /path/to/patchbaydefenition.xml

to a session script to have persistance and the
auto-connecting feature.

This requires that qjackctl isn't running, so the
full version for scripted pseudo-on-the-fly
pachbay change is:


TEST=`ps ax | grep qjackctl | grep -v grep | wc -l`
 if [ $TEST = 0 ]
 then
     killall qjackctl
 fi
qjackctl -a /path/to/patchbaydefenition.xml


I dislike the idea of manually creating sockets and plugs
but the automatic snapshots have worked so far.

Probably I'll stick to my old workflow involving jack_snapshot
and aconnect, using the patchbay just on top if required.

   -- uuuh -- thats four applications involved in making
connections, as soon as Ardour is part of the session. :)
I could add jack.plumbing and patchage and...
