Does anyone have experience using this tool?

If i understand correctly it would allow me to use several VST hosts/sequencers at the same time under windows? With all of them having acces to my audio driver.

No rewire needed.

It works exactly the same as on Linux (As promoted by Lionstracs) however consider whether you need it, as if you are just running VSTs, then the same can be done in a VST Host. (Try Energy XT, http://www.energy-xt.com/index.php?id=0101 as it is a host (Plus much more) that can also be run within a host)

If you wish to use standalone programs in conjunction with VSTs etc. then Jack will do all that you require.

Myself I have never found any need for Jack (Although I do have installed on my system just in case) but your needs may be different.

Hope this helps

Bill

I am currently using ableton live and cubase which are rewired, and live-styler sometimes as a standalone.. On top of that i want to use NI Kore as a standalone VST host too.


Never knew Jack audio was availble for Windows just noticed it yesterday, only knew it from the hype that Dom allways made around it.

If the windows version is exactly the same as the Linux version that is just great.


Thanks Bill

You can even configure jack with ASIO4ALL

Dom was not interested
