So running jackd with default ALSA backend settings (i.e. hw:0) just
provides the Mic in as capture ports?

What's that?

Can't I use a software noise gate or other software filters?
What's a piece of hardware got that I can't do with software?

Why are there 16?

And is there a way, read program, to show all available ALSA devices?

  Thanks a lot so far!
