ARDOUR

Installing Jack OS X on Mac OS X

Ardour runs in conjunction with the JACK Audio Connection Kit ( http://jackosx.com/ ). JACK is an audio system which manages connections between Ardour and the soundcard of your computer, and between Ardour and other JACK-enabled audio programs on your computer. You must install Jack OS X before you can use Ardour.
