The problem is, the soundblaster synth lives on the sound card, not in
jack, rosegarden or ardour, so there's no way to get the audio into ardour
unless you either:
- find a way to route the pcm audio from the SB Live synth back into jack
through one of the alsa capture devices. Probably possible with that card,
but I don't know how.
- loop it back using an external audio cable, and record it back into jack
that way. But you lose quality.
- or use a software synthesiser (e.g. fluidsynth) that runs entirely
inside the CPU, and route the output from that to ardour, then to the
soundcard's pcm audio out.
