Dear community,
although I know how to make a connection to my edirol Fa66 soundcard via jackd, I don't know how to disconnect it. Does someone know the solution? --- [hidden email] http://identi.ca/group/puredyne irc://irc.goto10.org/puredyne |

Start qjackctl - it should be in the audio group, labeled JACK Control
with an icon of an audio cable jack. Click on Connect and find the connection to the soundcard either under the audio or the ALSA tab, select the soundcard and whatever it is connected to (you can see the line drawn between the two) which will highlight the word "disconnect" below the diagram. Click disconnect and it's disconnected. qjackctl is your friend, but he's like the weird friend you had who you couldn't understand at first. The main qjackctrl panel has buttons for Patchbay and Connect. Patchbay is useful because (among other things) you can tell it to make a new patchbay definition that is a snapshot of the actual current client connections. This tells you what components jack is seeing in your system. The Connect button brings up a gui in which you can actually crossconnect the components that jack is showing in the patchbay. This is confusing until you get used to it. There are three tabs: audio, midi and alsa. The audio tab shows the hardware connections that can be made directly to and from the soundcard, like a softsynth or Supercollider that wants to send audio to be played directly on the hardware. The ALSA tab show the more interesting connections that you might want among your various synth, software and daw components. The left-hand side box labeled "Output" has the virtual plugs that have stuff coming out of them; the right hand box has the virtual plugs that you can send inputs into. So, connect the outputs to the inputs as desired, as if with virtual cables, and jack will make it happen. Disconnect them and jack will unplug the virtual cable. -Dave On Sun, 2010-06-27 at 12:33 +0200, Stefan Thomas wrote: > Dear community, > although I know how to make a connection to my edirol Fa66 soundcard > via jackd, I don't know how to disconnect it. > Does someone know the solution? > --- > [hidden email] > http://identi.ca/group/puredyne > irc://irc.goto10.org/puredyne --- [hidden email] http://identi.ca/group/puredyne irc://irc.goto10.org/puredyne |

Also, the brute force method to stop jackd entirely is to open a
terminal and enter > killall jackd then > ps -A | grep jack to make sure you killed it. If it is still around (i.e. shows up in the ps output), try > sudo kill -9 <processID> where processID is the number on the left side of the ps command's output. -Dave Desperate times call for desperate measures. Or is it disparate measures? And how many beats in these measures, anyway?
