[Qtractor-devel] Setting up an empty Qtractor default session - #1 How to disable "Auto connect" for "Audio Master"?

[Ralf M. <ral...@al...>]

Hi :)

after not using Linux pro-audio for a while, I'll give it another
chance. First I'll set up an empty default session, with a few empty
MIDI and audio tracks.

Before adding any track I already encountered an old issue. I don't know
how to disable auto connection for the audio IOs.

This is what I did until now:

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ jackd -dalsa -dhw:0 -r48000 -p256 -n2
jackdmp 1.9.9.5
[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ qtractor -v
Qt: 4.8.6
Qtractor: 0.6.2
[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ qtractor

_Audio channels still are auto connected_
