How to reconnect to external jack clients?

[oleg68]

Hello. I'm new in Carla and I'm migrating to it from qjackctl.

I have some troubles with Carla connection feature.

I can create a connection graph with carla and save it. But seams Carla prrocesses it and makes connections only when the project is opening. If an external application restarts, it becomes disconnected. I need to go to the File->Open menu and to select the project file again for reconnecting.

Qjackctl had an active patchbay feature that was scanning for the running jack clients and automaticaly connected them along the patchbay rules. Is there some feature in Carla?

Is there a simple way of recconnecting without lots of mouse clicks. For example, any Reopen button in Carla?

You might want to use a session manager for that.
There are a few still maintained, for example https://github.com/jackaudio/new-session-manager and https://www.laborejo.org/agordejo/
