There is a pretty signiciant overhead in passing control from one unit to another in JACK, as compared to LADSPA-like APIs. Also the buffer size is bound to the soundcards buffer size, which you dont generally want in a modular system. A modular system with internal modules that allows an arbitrary number of JACK i/o modules is functionally equivalent, and much more efficient. - Steve
