Real-time audio signal processing in python #59

Description

Hello,

I've been trying to make jackclient work (if possible) for a real-time audio processing application in python. You can see the code below:

import jack
import numpy as np

jclient = jack.Client("jclient")
    
jclient.register_port("in", jack.IsInput)
jclient.register_port("out", jack.IsOutput)
jclient.activate()

jclient.connect("system:capture_1","jclient:in")
for n_playback_port in (1, 2):
    jclient.connect("jclient:out", "system:playback_{}".format(n_playback_port))
#sr = jclient.get_sample_rate()
buffer_size = jclient.get_buffer_size()

jcapture = np.zeros((1,buffer_size), 'f')    
jinput = np.zeros((1,buffer_size), 'f')
joutput = np.zeros((1,buffer_size), 'f')

try:
    while True:
        print("Capturing audio")
        try:
            jclient.process(joutput, jcapture)
        except jack.InputSyncError:
            print("InputSyncError")
        except jack.OutputSyncError:
            print("OutputSyncError")

        #process jcapture here

        print("Playing back\n")
        try:
            jclient.process(jcapture, jinput)
        except jack.InputSyncError:
            print("InputSyncError")
        except jack.OutputSyncError:
            print("OutputSyncError")            
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    pass

The problem is that even if I don't process the signal at all (use the code above) and just playback the input I hear the input but with interrupts between the consecutive frames (buffers). Am I doing something wrong or is there a better way to do this?
I'm using 16000 kHz sample rate and 1024 samples buffer size for the jackd server.
