JACK is not a programming SDK for synthesis. Its an API that
(1) provides a high level callback abstraction for interacting
with an audio interface
(2) allows applications to share data with each other while
operating in a sample synchronous with respect to
each other.
It allows you to get a basic DSP algorithm producing sound without you
worrying about how to configure the audio interface, and then later
lets that same output be (potentially) routed to other applications
for processing/manipulation/recording.
