JACK Rack is an effects "rack" for the JACK low latency audio API. The rack can be filled with LADSPA effects plugins and can be controlled using the ALSA sequencer. It's phat; it turns your computer into an effects box.
<ats@offog.org>.JACK Rack requires JACK, GTK+2 and LADSPA 1.1. In order to save rack configurations, it needs libxml2. It will optionally use GNOME 2, LASH and can also use LRDF XML plugin descriptions (liblrdf relies on raptor.)
It needs a patchbay, for example jack_connect (command line, comes with JACK) or QJackConnect. If you don't have any LADSPA plugins, get some from here. Great guitar effects for LADSPA can be found in the CAPS package.
The current stable release of JACK Rack is 1.4.7.
