# idjc-run(1)

Launch the idjc main application

## NAME

idjc-run - Launch the idjc main application

## SYNOPSIS

idjc run \[-h\] \[-d {true,false}\] \[-p profile\_choice\] \[-j server\_name\]\
          \[-S session\_details\] \[--no-jack-connections\] \[-C\]\
          \[-c c \[c ...\]\] \[-V {off,private,public}\] \[-P p \[p ...\]\]\
          \[-s s \[s ...\]\] \[-x {1,2}\]

## DESCRIPTION

### General options

- **-h, --help**

  Show a help message.

- **-d, --dialog**={true,false}

  Whether to show the profile chooser dialog.

- **-p, --profile**=PROFILE

  Which profile to run. Any profile other than default must currently exist.

- **-j, --jackserver**=SERVER

  The named jack server to use.

- **-S, --session**=SESSIONINFO

  See the session support section below for more details.

- **--no-jack-connections**

  A possibly useful option if you are using some kind of session manager. On startup idjc will not attempt to make any connections itself.

- **--no-default-jack-connections**

  No JACK ports will be connected except those listed in the session file. Naturally that means if the session file doesn't exist no connections will be made.

### User interface options

- **-c, --channels**=CHANNELS

  Open the specified channels of a space separated list.

- **-V, --voip**=MODE

  Select the specified VoIP mode.

- **-P, --players**=PLAYERS

  Start the specified players of a space separated list. Valid options are numeric.

- **-s, --servers**=SERVERS

  Start the specified servers of a space separated list. Valid options are numeric.

- **-x, --crossfader**={1,2}

  Position the crossfader.

## ENVIRONMENT

If the *~/.jackdrc* file is not present unless otherwise configured with a tool like *ladiconf* or *QjackCtl* **idjc** will start but will be configured with a sample rate of 48000 which is suboptimal for streaming CD audio. It is recommended to create such a file by this method within a console or use the aforementioned tools which may require installation.

**$** echo "/usr/bin/jackd -d alsa -r 44100 -p 2048" \> ~/.jackdrc

If you prefer to start the JACK sound server manually you can do so like this.

**$** jackd -d alsa -r 44100 -p 2048

Refer to [**jackd**(1)](/jackd/1.md) for further details.

**idjc** has native language support and takes account of the *LANG* and *LANGUAGE* environment variables.

## SESSION SUPPORT

**idjc** supports Ladish \[L0\] and \[L1\] session modes. On the command line you could specify --session=L1, --session=L1:session-name, or --session=L1:session-name:/path/to/savedir. If a save path is supplied IDJC operates in session rather than profile mode. The default mode is L0:default which does periodic saving and also saves at exit. You may specify an alternate name or a session pathname for L0 mode also.

When using L1 mode in Gladish if you choose "Studio/Save Studio" or "Project/Save Project" from the main menu **idjc** will save the JACK connection configuration in the session file.
