... and did you see the real time movements of the mixer controls?
Ooh no I didn't... I just created a pan move to see it... Damn, that's beautiful.
That said I noticed a harsh slow down, or is it just me ? This machine is a modest

(I use LXDE when making music because under KDE4.4 the mem footprint is ridiculous - it's simply not usable - oh and bonus, under LXDE you get a nice mixer taskbar icon instead of the confusing dumb X ! this is not a small ergonomic point - digression off)
And yet with only three tracks, there is no way I can loop it 3 times w/o xrun, whatever the jack config.
When I have this other project, with 7 tracks so far, a long one, with big bits of audio, complex monosynth sequences and rakattack insert, that runs from top to bottom w/o xrun. Just so you know. I can run more tests if you're interested in that kind of low-end HW ; This is really exciting, I think I'm gonna go for a walk and fresh air.
EDIT - I re-run this test and no, sorry, no xrun, only a double-start of the hydrogen pattern every other bar.. Hum
EDIT2 Weird, I shifted everything one bar to the right, added a bar of the same pattern in hydrogen, the double-start effect stopped, but this time, one bar out of two, I can't hear the first kick (1st even in the looped pattern) this really looks like something I should know and I don't...
