NAME

qjackctl - User interface for controlling JACK (Jack Audio Connection Kit)

SYNOPSIS

qjackctl [options]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the qjackctl command.

QjackCtl is used for controlling the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK) and as a patchbay for ALSA MIDI and JACK MIDI devices. QjackCtl also has support for the JACK transport control protocol, so you can use it to start and stop the JACK transport.
