Jack Audio Connection Kit 0.34.0 Released
The Jack team is pleased to announce the release of version 0.34.0 of
the Jack low-latency audio server. Jack allows applications to share
data and audio devices in synchronous operation, and has already seen
many months of hard testing and refinement. The API has essentially
stabilized for the foreseeable future, although backwards
compatibility is not guaranteed. More information on Jack is available
at the group's web site, [1]http://jackit.sourceforge.net/.
Source and binary packages for Jack 0.34.0 are available [2]here.
Features and Enhancements
* Simple, powerful architecture allows audio applications to share
data
* Growing number of [3]jackified applications
* Modular driver system can accept many kinds of audio drivers
* Dithered noise shaping in the alsa driver (optional)
* Support for real-time operation using either root privileges or
POSIX 1.e capabilities
* Hardware monitoring support for ice1712 and hammerfall sound cards
Work is ongoing to improve transport control and total latency
calculations.
