Introduction

What is qjackctl

Qjackctl is a simple application to control the JACK sound server daemon, specific for the Linux Audio Desktop infrastructure. It provides a simple GUI dialog for setting several JACK daemon parameters, which are properly saved between sessions, and a way to control the status of the audio server daemon.
