Comment 15 for bug 1172299

Hi DJ_Barney,

A lot of what you want to do is already possible in Mixxx, and I do it. I use the individual deck outputs in Mixxx to forward the audio to a set of jack-racks that handle effects and crossfading. (There's not even a need to bring the altered output back in to mixxx). Even though Mixxx connects jack devices itself, I have a script that disconnects the devices and then reconnects them to my racks. You can still use qjackctl! Mixxx already supports multiple control surfaces so we don't need JACK for that. And with the passthrough code that we'll be checking in shortly (to trunk), you can have external inputs from other programs.

Yes, the naming is a little inconvenient, but the actual functionality you are looking for is already there.
