You have to enable 8 ins/outs in the SC_JACK_DEFAULT_INPUTS and SC_JACK_DEFAULT_OUTPUTS environment variables. This is described in part of the README LINUX (under the heading "environment"). >From within SC: "echo $SC_JACK_DEFAULT_OUTPUTS".unixCmd --> system:playback_1,system:playback_2 ... which explains the two outputs. You'll need _3, _4 ... _8 as well. I'm not sure if the linux readme is distributed with a package installation -- my installation is checked out from git and built myself, so naturally it has all the files. If it's not there, then the packaging rules will have to be changed (or, a proper help file explaining sc server configuration in Linux would need to be written). hjh -- James Harkins /// dewdrop world [email protected] http://www.dewdrop-world.net "Come said the Muse, Sing me a song no poet has yet chanted, Sing me the universal." -- Whitman blog: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/words audio clips: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/audio more audio: http://soundcloud.com/dewdrop_world/tracks --- [email protected] http://identi.ca/group/puredyne irc://irc.goto10.org/puredyne
