- cptn_brittish 6y agoIt has a jack and pulseaudio api wrapper. I use it because it means I don't need to muck around with configuring pulse and jack to work nicely together.
- fmoralesc 6y agoJust tried recording from my laptop's mic - the reported latency from Ardour was 5,3ms (with 256 samples/buffer). It crashed when I went down to 128 samples/buffer.
