Jackd
De Musix
The JACK Audio Connection Kit or JACK is a sound server or daemon that provides low latency connections between so-called jackified applications. It is created by Paul Davis and others and licensed under the GNU GPL.
JACK is free audio software. It can use ALSA, PortAudio, CoreAudio, FreeBOB and (still experimental) OSS as its back-end. As of 2003 it runs on Linux and Mac OS X. There is also a version 2 in the works JACKDMP which support Windows.

Applications
Some software that works with JACK:
- Aqualung [1] Music player use GTK
- JAMin [2] an all-in-one audio mastering tool. An OS X binary version of Jamin if available here [3] (note that you'll also need ardour 2 for this build to work properly).
- qjackctl [4] is a Qt based tool to control JACK.
- Ardour, a hard disk recorder.
- Baudline, a signal analysis tool.
- SuperCollider, a real-time audio programming language.
- ChucK, real-time audio programming language
- CheeseTracker is an Impulse Tracker clone.
- Rosegarden, a free digital audio workstation program for Linux.
- XMMS, using xmms-jack
- Freqtweak [5], a digital EQ.
- Demeter can show distortion in JACK systems and AD/DA converters.
- JACK Rack is an effects "rack" for the JACK low latency audio API.
- JACK Timemachine is a simple program to record sounds that would otherwise have been lost
- LADCCA [6] is the Linux Audio Developer's Configuration and Connection API, a session management system for audio applications.
- Meterbridge
- MusE [7], a Qt-based MIDI/audio sequencer.
- PyJack Python module to provide an interface to the JACK server.
- Pure data - a graphical programming language for multimedia.
- ZynAddSubFX - an opensource software synthesizer.
- Hydrogen - an advanced drum machine.
- Specimen - software midi sampler
- Rivendell - a complete radio broadcast automation solution
- oss2jack [8] - an OSS to JACK bridge that allows legacy OSS applications to work seamlessly with JACK.
- Internet DJ Console - IDJC. A simple, feature packed streaming radio DJ application.
- Jost - multiple plugin technologies host with audio, midi and sequencing capabilities
As we write the year 2007, completing a complete list of jack supporting software would be nearly impossible, because there are many applications with JACK support (eg. every well known videoplayer supports jack as audio output mplayer/vlc/xine, also nearly every audio playing software for Linux support's jack output.) There are currently (2007-07-24) no VOIP clients with jack support.
Libraries
- Allegro, a game programming library.
- bio2jack, a library that allows for simple porting of blocked I/O (bio) OSS/ALSA audio applications to Jack.
- libjackasyn is a library that converts programs written for the OSS system into JACK-aware applications.
