Multiple Inputs and Outputs

[dainiusbukauskas]

Hi Madhatter,

This is amazing! Thank you so much. Super low latency and working for me.

I would love to be able to set it up with maybe like 4 channels of in/out. Is there a way to do this with this app how it is? Or is that a feature not yet available.

Thanks,

• Dain

Hi Dain,

Thank you for comment. Sorry, the number of audio channels is not configurable because it's hard-coded. At first step, I fixed to make it configurable by changing macro in JackBridge.h. It still requires recompilation. So I prepared 8in-8out JackBridge driver/daemon for testing.

If you don't mind, please try it. I think replacing driver and restarting coreaudiod is enough for update. But you may have to reboot system after installation.

Hi Madhatter,

Thanks so much for putting this together. Unfortunately I can't get it to work. I tried several things, restarting multiple times, killing audiod, reinstalling, uninstalling jackrouter, reinstalling and I can't it to work. It's showing up in AudioMidi setup with 8ins and 8outs, but no audio is getting through. I'm sorry I'm not very good at this kind of coding. Here's what the jackrouter daemon gave me:

and this is what I'm seeing in audiomidi setup. The difference I noticed between Jack Router and Jack Bridge was that the volume control here is disabled, whereas it shows up as enabled with Jack Router.

Thanks again for trying to get this working!

It looks jack daemon startup failure. I haven't met this kind of error and couldn't reproduce it on my environment. Could you try following?

1) System restart, start only jack daemon, then start JackBridge. 2) If it works, compare the current jackd options (with 'ps ax | grep jack') with the contents in '~/.jackdrc' which should keep jackd options at autostart mode. 3) If staring daemon fails, check jack version (I think the latest version is here) and send me the messages from jackdmp. 4) If starting JackBridge fails, please send me the message log again.

Here is my jackd options I confirmed to work on my environment. (-C and -P depend on your audio device)

/usr/local/bin/jackdmp -T -ndefault -R -d coreaudio -r 44100 -p 512 -i 2 -o 2 -C AppleHDAEngineInput:1B,0,1,0:1 -P AppleHDAEngineOutput:1B,0,1,1:0

Thank you for cooperation.

Hello. I've tried to compile myself in 8i 8o configuration, but I get strange error. What I did is to change lines 67-68-69 of JackBridge.h. to

#define NUM_INPUT_STREAMS   4
#define NUM_OUTPUT_STREAMS  4
#define MAX_STREAMS         4

and it compiles but I get this error when I start JackBridge:

does not match shmsize(196608). May be driver version mismatch mmap() failed with Invalid argument Attaching shared memory failed (id=0)

I have searched the code for shmsize and find it declared in two places:

• line 77 of JackBridge
• line 53 of /libs/coreAudio.hpp

I don't know how to compute the requested value, nor if either should match. Happy to test it here as I need JackRouter to work in a multi core audio software workflow so let me know if/how I can help/test stuff.

Hello. I'm imac osx 10.13.6 user. i used precompiled build binary from this repo provided at start README.MD and it works, but JackBridgePlugIn.driver has only 4 mono in/outs available.

I also interested to get at least 32 mono - 16 stereo in/out, to JackBridge my audio equipment. Is there any guided solution how to patch these sources and compiile into working JackBridge? I tried to build the .driver with following parameters with Xcode

JackBridge.h:

define NUM_INPUT_STREAMS 32

define NUM_OUTPUT_STREAMS 32

define MAX_STREAMS 32

And after all manipulation guided at this repo in other issues i run in 'daemon' dir ./build.sh then cp'ed it to my 'bin' start jackd via qjackctl with 'default' name and my digi003 rack+ then i run JackBridge daemon and it terminates with

Would be appreciate to point me at right way to understand how exactly coreaudio api internals cooperates with driver.
