JackDirector lets you control Jack Audio Connection Kit's transport play/pause using midi commands (noteon) and let you assign bpm changes and other commands to midi program changes. This program plays a metronome thru 2 audio outputs exposed in Jack.
Features:
- Control Jack Transport's play/pause using midi notes
- Control Jack Transport's position
- Metronome audio output
- Assign different scenes to different program changes
- Control bpm, mute metronome, song position, stop transport for every scene
- Output a midi clock out for programs allowing external midi sync (eg. wine programs)

To control its behavior you have to provide a configuration file named jack-directorrc.
