pajackconnect VS pipewire

PulseAudio: PulseAudio-ALSA-JACK Bridge (Comes out of the box with Cadence!) pavucontrol The rest of PulseAudio magic is done by playing with your default.pa/system.pa files ;)

> Yeah making PulseAudio play nice with JACK seems to be tricky.

for me https://github.com/brummer10/pajackconnect has worked flawlessly... but I've switched to pipewire and I'm not looking back !

start jack, start pulseaudio, run pajackconnect, done

Jack + Qjackctl to set things like buffer size has actually been pretty seamless to me using Bitwig. Everything kind of just works once I setup a Pulse Audio -> Jack Bridge via Qjackctl and this script. I can get latency way down low in Bitwig, and then when I'm running normal apps and games the bridge works perfectly. Pipewire is exciting though, it's just pretty new so I haven't seen as much documentation or tools.

If you don't know what PipeWire is (I didn't), it's an audio-video handler - it replaces things like PulseAudio.

Damn, your "audio server" seems to disagree with you.

PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia pipelines. This includes:

I installed and configured pipewire according to the instructions from the Debian website. And let me tell you, it solved all my problems. The sound quality is good enough for practice, latency is very low. Currently, I just mute my guitar in YS, turn on ToneLib, adjust the volume on the system mixer, and play.
