Hopefully the Jack Server should start up without any errors. Note: If you are using a USB/Firewire audio device, you would select it in the вЂњInterfaceвЂќ area by pushing the right arrow button (not the drop down).Д«ack in the main window click Start. This should be all that you need to adjust in this setup window.

Change the Server Path to: /usr/local/bin/jackdДЄlso change the Driver to вЂњcoreaudioвЂќ. YouвЂ™ll need to change a few entries to get it to work properly. Open up Qjackctl in the Applications/Jack folder. They have typically been including Qjackctl v0.3.6 with the install. This is the last youвЂ™ll ever need to open it (but donвЂ™t delete it of course).ДЄs of 0.9.0b8, they were including the very helpful program Qjackctl with the installation which is the GUI front end for Jack (gives you way more control than JackPilot). Go to Preferences in JackPilot and Change the Input Channels to 8, and the Output Channels to 16.

Head on over to this link and download the latest for your mac and install it:ДЄfter Jack is installed, and you have rebooted, open up JackPilot in the Applications/Jack folder. ThatвЂ™s when I found the internal audio routing program Jack OSX. I had to find something with no latency and was very reliable. The problem, I found out one night during programming, is that there is an immense amount of latency that can occur with some external audio devices in SoundFlower, and you may not even realize it until itвЂ™s too late.

I used to use a program called SoundFlower, which is seemigly a great and simple program, however it is abandoned software and completely unsupported. This is specifically for a Mac While one of the programs is available in all flavors (Mac, PC, Linux), the timecode reader is not. I use a few programs to be able to see/verify the timecode on an audio track for programming. I deal with SMPTE Timecode all the time This is no secret. UPDATE: A newer compile of QJACKCTL (0.3.10) is available here. Very useful for cueing very tight segments for consoles without a learn function. What is nice about this setup, is that when you use Markers, the marker time will accurately reflect where that is in your timecode stripe. Under Time Display check Use time origin from audio file and then select the same frame rate that you encoded the file at in Wave Agent.ДЄccept those settings and you should now see the start time you put into Wave Agent (minus one frame) in the cursor position readout at the top right of Twisted Wave Open up Twisted Wave and then its Preferences.

Click OK to confirm and then after itвЂ™s done, you can close Wave Agent. Update: Twisted Wave version 1.13.2.4 or later has fixed this math error, so enter the actual start time In this example it would be 08:00:00:00.Д¬lick OK and then the SAVE button at the far left bottom most corner. My SMPTE stripe is actually starting at 08:00:00.00 however there is something weird in Twisted Wave that it displays the WAV file early by one frame, so I correct it here to make up for it. Change this time to match the time of where the timecode stripe on your audio file is starting at (if youвЂ™re not sure, ask the person who generated the audio file or run it through an actual SMPTE clock to find out вЂ“ reference my earlier post on reading SMPTE on a mac to be able to do this). Make sure that Preserve Start TC is checked and then click on Edit. Drag the WAV file that you wish to alter into the large area at the top, or from the File menu, click on Import.ДЄt the Recording Info area in the center bottom of the display, click on Frame Rate and select the rate that your timecode audio file is running at. Go here and download Wave Agent ( Once installed, open Wave Agent.

However, it becomes very handy when you are programming offline and need to get markers in, in a program like Twisted Wave for example. I have found that when these files come from the audio team, they donвЂ™t necessarily have the correct start time entered (since no-one really needs to use it). There is a great reference available in Broadcast WAV files that allows many audio editing programs to display an embedded timecode stamp that was given to it from the audio program that created the file.
