About JACK and Debian
- There are 3 JACK implementations: jackd1, jackd2, pipewire-jack.
- jackd1 is mostly superseded in favour of jackd2, and as far as I understand, can be ignored
- pipewire-jack integrates well with pipewire and the rest of the Linux audio world
- jackd2 is the native JACK server. When started it handles the sound card directly, and will steal it from pipewire. Non-JACK audio applications will likely cease to see the sound card until JACK is stopped and wireplumber is restarted. Pipewire should be able to keep working as a JACK client but I haven't gone down that route yet
- pipewire-jack mostly works. At some point I experienced glitches in complex JACK apps like giada or ardour that went away after switching to jackd2. I have not investigated further into the glitches
- So: try things with pw-jack. If you see odd glitches, try without pw-jack to use the native jackd2. Keep in mind, if you do so, that you will lose standard pipewire until you stop jackd2 and restart wireplumber.
