Ohhh! Thanks.
I thought Jack was ("only") a sort of "virtual audio cable" for 
connecting the output of an app to the input of another. I guess it is 
_also_ that.

Anyway, just out of curiosity, why cannot two pd's using oss or alsa 
both work simultaneously while other apps apparently can?

Thanks
