Hi Paul,
According to the Rosegarden developers, if I have this straight, there is some stuff in RG that requires ALSA even when JACK is running. They implied that a Mac port would need to solve this. I am actually all for just doing JACK support especially if that eliminates the need for platform specific code.
Well, there's audio and there's MIDI. They probably mean that RG's uses ALSA MIDI even when it uses JACK for audio. This is a deeper question and we should probably discuss it away from this list. The short story is that JACK can handle both MIDI and audio, and that JACK MIDI has significant benefits for cases where MIDI is used to drive audio synthesis, but some notable benefits when its used for other purposes.
