πŸ’… SMJACK β€” the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay so bestie, you're reading the smjack(1) page from the smjack Manual Page β€” yes that's a whole manual section for one icon of a program, we love that for us 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

smjack β€” the SpectMorph JACK Client ✨ (say it with your chest, it's giving main character energy)


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

smjack [morphplan.smplan]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one optional little argument and she's off πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so smjack is a graphical JACK Client for creating/executing SpectMorph morph plans. and what even is a morph plan, you ask? okay so a morph plan literally describes how SpectMorph should morph data from different sources β€” that's the whole assignment, that's her job πŸ’–

the plan (which consists of operators, keep up bestie) can be interactively edited and exported for later reuse. so yeah, you can build it, tweak it, save it, come back to it β€” iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘

passing no morph plan starts with an empty plan, whereas passing a morph plan loads this plan. simple as that, no cap 🌈

once started, smjack creates JACK ports for midi input, control input and audio output β€” and those need to be connected using qjackctl or similar. yes, you gotta do that part yourself, it's not gonna connect itself πŸ™ˆ


⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

there are no options other than the optional morph plan. that's it. that's the list. we love a low-maintenance queen πŸŽ€

ngl this is the shortest options section ever and honestly? respect πŸ’€
