for setting up connections between jack clients I found that jack.plumbing
is really really cool, as it works with a list that one can edit while its
running, and that is re-read everytime there is a new new client saying
'hello' to jack. but, I'm thinking, why not take the EQ values you find best
from jack-rack and use BEQSuite Filters on scsynth so that you have one less
client to have to hook up? I found jack-rack, and some ladspa plugins really
unreliable and wouldn't necessarily use it in a setting where it would have
to run for quuite a while. anyways... only my 2 cents :)
