=head1 NAME

zita-a2j - use ALSA capture device as a JACK client, with resampling

zita-j2a - use ALSA playback device as a JACK client, with resampling

=head1 SYNOPSIS

zita-a2j I<options>

zita-j2a I<options>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

zita-ajbridge provides two applications, zita-a2j and zita-j2a.  They
allow using an ALSA device as a Jack client, to provide additional
capture (a2j) or playback (j2a) channels.  Functionally these are
equivalent to the alsa_in and alsa_out clients that come with JACK,
but they provide much better audio quality. The resampling ratio will
typically be stable within 1 PPM and change only very smoothly. Delay
will be stable as well even under worst case conditions, e.g. the JACK
client running near the end of the cycle.

=head1 OPTIONS

Options for both executables are the same, except the default JACK client name.
