How can I check with what server name jack is run by Cadence?
This is the output in Cadence's log window:

I normally start Ardour not through Cadenca and that works as expected.

 That looks as expected, no warnings shown.

 with jackd from commamd line:

[moshew@email-addr-hidden-laptop ~]$ jconvolver
/usr/share/doc/jconvolver/DRC-Salon-Sofa/salonsofa.conf
Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server request channel
jack server is not running or cannot be started
JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping
unlock
JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping
unlock
Can't connect to JACK

Hi Oliver,

--period 128 -> this is very low. Not all system/hardware are able to

All other programs (Ardour & Pianoteq etc.) work with this settings.
Do you see any reason why jconvolver would not?

Thanks
