Description

Start/stop jack_transport and can optionally relocate the playback head.

Syntax

jacktransport icommand [, ilocation]

Initialization

icommand -- 1 to start playing, 0 to stop.

ilocation -- optional location in seconds to specify where the playback head should be moved. If omitted, the transport is started from current location.

	Note
	Since jacktransport depends on jack audio connection kit, it will work only on Linux or Mac OS X systems which have the jack server running.

Examples

Here is a simple example of the jacktransport opcode. It uses the file jacktransport.csd.
