Description Dennis Schridde 2021-03-20 14:50:20 UTC 
The PipeWire developers recommend to use Catia for PipeWire (and JACK) for use-cases that the loopback module serves for PulseAudio: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/543#note_845943

Their alternative recommendation is Carla, which is also not packaged for Gentoo: https://bugs.gentoo.org/561582

DESCRIPTION="Simple JACK Patchbay"
HOMEPAGE="https://kx.studio/Applications:Catia"
LICENSE="GPL-2.0"

Source: https://github.com/falkTX/Cadence
Code is Python and C++ with dependencies on Qt.

The build system uses custom Makefiles.  Luckily there is not too much code (Catia seems to have a rather narrow focus), so hopefully it is not too much trouble to build.

Catia is packaged as part of media-sound/cadence already

Thanks!

I submitted bug #777408 and bug #777411 in the hopes that solving both will satisfy my use-case (comment #0).
