How To Fix zita-a2j: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu zita-a2j is provided by zita-ajbridge package.

zita-ajbridge is:

This package provides two applications, zita-a2j and zita-j2a. They allow one to use an ALSA device as a Jack client, to provide additional capture (a2j) or playback (j2a) channels.

Functionally these are equivalent to the alsa_in and alsa_out clients that come with Jack, but they provide much better audio quality. The resampling ratio will typically be stable within 1 PPM and change only very smoothly. Delay will be stable as well even under worse case conditions, e.g. the Jack client running near the end of the cycle.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install zita-ajbridge

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install zita-ajbridge.

sudo apt -y install zita-ajbridge

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install zita-ajbridge
