Re: [LAU] How to get started writing a JACK app? (also what distro for BeagleBone)

In-process JACK clients are a very special case and almost nobody
implements or uses them. They are like plugins for the JACK server, and
that's not really the point of JACK (which was designed to connect distinct
processes).

Look at the out-of-process ("normal") example(s) instead.
