jack (Jack Sound Server)
JACK is a low-latency audio server written mainly for Linux.
It can connect a number of different applications to an audio
device as well as allow them to share audio among themselves.

======================================================================
NOTE:
=== JACK Servers in this Package ===
This package includes both the classic JACK server ("jackd") and the D-Bus enabled server ("jackdbus").
You can choose which one to use depending on your workflow.
== Classic JACK ("jackd") ==
- Uses the traditional `.jackdrc` configuration file.
- Recommended if you prefer manual control or use `qjackctl` in classic mode.
- Example to start:
# jackd -d alsa -d hw:0
== D-Bus JACK ("jackdbus") ==
D-Bus JACK provides integration with desktop environments and tools like `qjackctl`.
**Important notes:**
- ".jackdrc" and some classic "qjackctl" settings are ignored.
**Example to start D-Bus JACK:**
# jack_control start
== IMPORTANT ==
**Do not run "jackd" and "jackdbus" at the same time**
this may cause conflicts accessing the audio hardware.
