Thank you all for the replies, I verified there was no empty space on the ends of the sound file and reduced the buffer size. René, that is a great tutorial on midi and jack. I was able to get midi connectivity with the pygame.midi functions.
i found this example of C code that uses jack: http://trac.jackaudio.org/browser/trunk/jack/example-clients/metro.c Is it possible to download the source files like "jack.h" and "transport.h" in the pygame file's folder then somehow import it and call a function to make my program appear the in qjackctl dialog boxes? Thank you.
