QJACKCTL(1)						      General Commands Manual						       QJACKCTL(1)

NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       qjackctl [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly the qjackctl command.  This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
       program does not have a manual page.

       qjackctl  is used for controlling the Jack Audio Connection Kit (JACK) and as a patchbay for ALSA MIDI devices. Qjackctl also  has  support
       for the JACK transport control protocol, so you can use it to start and stop the JACK transport. Once you start qjackctl, you get presented
       with a single GUI window, the buttons are self-explanatory and have tooltips.
