I don't know that you will need JACK for creating the actual CD master,
since that comes *after* you have done the pre-mastering with the Ardour
-> Jamin -> Ardour stream. Once you have your tracks pre-mastered, then
you bring them into something like gcdmaster and start arranging things
for the actual CD layout.

You might want to upgrade all of those. They are a bit old!
