To find available hardware interfaces:
$> arecord -l **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: CONEXANT Analog [CONEXANT Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: US800 [US-800], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
The jackd argument is then constructed as hw:$CARD[,$SUBDEVICE]. My Tascam interface is referenced with hw:1:
$> jackd -d alsa -d hw:1
Now you have the serve running it's time to connect a client to it.
JACK ships with a bunch of example code in example-clients/; each provides a simple implementation of a basic principle. simple_client.c is an excellent first step. JACK's documentation gives an example command to build a client however I think it's out of date due to changes in the default linking behaviour of gcc. The command that works for me is:
$> gcc example-clients/simple_client.c -o ~/jack-simple $( pkg-config --cflags --libs jack ) -lm
pkg-config links the JACK library and -lm links the math library required to use sin.
