Greetings,
Just a quick note to describe how I've been using JACK with Processing. I've been experimenting with jjack, but it currently won't work with JACK in realtime mode, which is kind of the whole point of JACK. However, if my sketches need only MIDI I can still use JACK for connecting Processing to external synths. The trick here is to use the ALSA virtual MIDI module (snd-virmidi). I select it as the preferred MIDI output port and use QJackCtl to wire my sketch's output to QSynth or any other Linux synth (or even VST plugins via Festige).
And btw, does anyone know why JavaSound insists on counting each one of my audio/MIDI devices 8 times ?! According to JavaSound's count I have 97 possible connections available. In fact, I have an M-Audio Delta 66, a SoundBlaster Live Value, the ALSA virtual MIDI card, and a USB webcam's audio device. The virtual MIDI card has four ports itself, which means it has 32 instances listed by JavaSound. Weird.
Best,
