Agreed, I am in the business of using an increasingly large number of ports
and wringing as much audio execution time out of the system as possible.
even small memory/execution overheads add up quickly in this context.
Additionally it is my opinion that a well written JACK client must include
its own volume adjustment. in fact, I have yet to encounter one I use that
does not.
Furthmore I do not believe it can be That much trouble to insert some
manner of volume adjustment, eg those found in patchmatrix or mentioned so
far, between those that dont.
