Hey hey,
when using Csound with JACK and live inputs, is there a way to give different 
client names to different inputs?

If not, the reason is this: I have a DAW which can send audio to other JACK 
clients, but can't specify the ports. It just uses the first (n channel) ports 
that it finds. For side chaining effects in Csound however, I need one lot of 
inputs for the signal to be processed and one lot of inputs for the side 
chain.

Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks and best wishes,

Jeanette

csound --help gives the following jack options that might be relevant to you

-+jack_client= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK client name (default: csound6)
-+jack_inportname= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK input port name prefix (default: input)
-+jack_midi_client= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK MIDI client name prefix (default: csound6-midi)
-+jack_midi_inportname= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK MIDI input port name(default: port)
-+jack_midi_outportname= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK MIDI output port name (default: port)
-+jack_outportname= (max. length = 32 characters)
	JACK output port name prefix (default: output)

Alas not, these options set client name and schemes for port names
globally.

Hm, thinking harder about it, I assume the only way this would be
possible, would be to have more than one JACK client within the same
Csound instance. This makes it an external challenge. Thanks for getting
me to use my head properly. :)

Best wishes,
