I use non-mixer-xt to host several reverb plugins. This distributes the realtime load with genuine jack2 to several CPU cores.
And I started to use external hardware, e.g. compressors.
I use audio Insert Sends to connect to non-mixer-xt and external hardware.
With complex sessions I noticed a strange behaviour that I cannot reproduce in a simple test session yet:
- Closing (close button of main window) or exiting (File->Exit) hangs sometimes.
- Other running jack-clients like non-mixer-xt or Qjackctl are also hanging and cannot be closed/exited
- I can kill Qtractor with the session manager or a kill command, then the other jack-clients end
It seems to help when I deactivate those Insert Sends before closing Qtractor, especially those that go to external hardware and back.
Would it be a good idea if Qtractor was deactivating all Insert Sends before disconnecting from jackd and exiting?
At least it cannot hurt, I guess.
re. Closing/exiting Qtractor hangs sometimes...
what is the current setting to Track > Auto Deactivate ? does it help if it's on or off ?
Cannot reproduce it at the moment
It's crazy. It doesn't happen at the moment. If it comes back then I'll try Auto Deactivate. It was set to off.
Auto Deactivate seems to help
I had one issue without Auto Deactivate and no issue so far with Auto Deactivate. I'll leave Auto Deactivate on and see what happens.
