You could always use a shell script to connect your ports after Pd has launched (either using jack.plumbing or jack_connect). Arguably, this would be a preferred way of dealing with such issue on linux rather than providing specific externals. Also note that on pd-extended there is already an abstraction called [output~] that provides some GUI trivia to [dac~] (volume, mute buttons etc) but is hard-coded to provide a stereo [dac~], I am not sure where it comes from.
Alternatively, you could also use qjackctl's patchbay to save your connections if you prefer a GUI. ./MiS On Sun, Jan 10, 2010 at 1:25 AM, tdrecordable <[email protected]> wrote: > yeah, can do that but my sound card(RME Multiface) has 18 or something > ins/outs. so that makes it a bit annoying when using those outs for hardware > patching. > t > > On Sat, Jan 9, 2010 at 9:40 PM, Andrew Faraday <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> usually, [dac~] with a specific argument does just that.
