After pretty much 1 year of work the result is finally public.
For those that don't know, in early 2024 I joined the Darkglass Electronics company. Bringing the expertise developed through many years with MOD Devices / MOD Audio and my own projects, and started to create together with them a super fancy new Linux-embed based product.
This runs JACK2 inside with mod-host and LV2 plugins. Very soon to start opening up to external plugin developers.
Very exciting! 🎉
@falktx Congratz and good job. Is there a technical reason you went with jack2 and not pipewire?
@alf yes, CPU performance mostly.
all clients are internal, so no context switching. also no need for "security" or other details in a dedicated linux embed device without network capabilities.
It's also easier for me to tweak jack2 rather than pipewire.
And finally it's nice to have these projects that in a way help maintain the JACK project.
Stuff like
https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/compare/develop...max-dsp-load has always been missing in JACK but now added because we needed it for Anagram.
