4 There are different output engines for zynaddsubfx.
8 Simply start zyn using `zynaddsubfx -O alsa`.
10 NOTE: If your system is using PulseAudio, this may not work. Even if it does,
11 and ALSA redirects to PulseAudio, realtime guarantees can not be made. It is
12 recommended to follow the steps in the <<PulseAudio>> section.
16 NOTE: If your system is using PulseAudio, this is the suggested way, but may
17 not work out of the box, or it may not do what you want. Please seee the
18 <<PulseAudio>> section.
20 There are different ways to forward zyn to jack:
22 * Automatic connecting with `zynaddsfubx -O jack -a` will usually do what you
24 * Manual selective connecting can be done by using `zynaddsfubx -O jack` and
27 - the `jack_connect` commandline utility
28 * Automatic selective connecting can be done using

33 PulseAudio is *not* **directly** implemented in zyn. While PulseAudio can be
34 really practical in many cases, it has no realtime guarantees. Running zyn
35 right through pulse is thus not intended. In case you want to keep
36 PulseAudio and still use zyn, the suggested way is to route PulseAudio through
40 * Route pulse through jack2 using cadence
